Java Spring Framework 4 and Spring Certification

Welcome to Java Spring Framework 4 and Core Spring Certification Preparation/Training course.

By attending this course, you will be able to learn the details of the latest Spring Framework 4x version by following code samples.

This course also provides you the answers to all Core Spring Framework 4x Certification questions inside the official study guide. (in total 162 questions). Therefore, after completing this course, you will learn the answers of questions with code examples and able to pass the certification.

Moreover, you will be able to earn a higher salary hence you will learn the latest and productive web development technologies and this course will also improve your knowledge about programming by teaching you the Spring Framework's dependency injection principle. So at the end of this course, you will be more confident regarding the development of commercial applications.

The course will start with the configuration of the course environment such as downloading and installing the Java JDK and STS (Spring Tool Suite). I will also provide for you the links for downloading the source codes and slides used in this course. By downloading those materials, you will be able to configure your environment and also other commercial applications in an easy way. This course will provide you two sample application including the configurations of Spring Framework and its dependencies; one of them is configured as a Java Standard Edition program and the other one is a Web-based application. (names are spring, spring-web)

The content of the course is based on the following sections;

• Spring Container, Dependency, and IOC (Inversion of Control)
• Aspect Oriented Programming
• JDBC, Transactions, and ORM (Hibernate)
• Spring MVC
• Spring Security
• Messaging (JMS)
• REST
• Unit Testing with JUnit
• Library Management with Maven

If you attend this course, I will also answer all of your questions related to the course or code examples through comments. You will be able to ask me any questions related to the Spring Framework or Core Spring Certification through udemy, emails and the contact form inside my technical blog.
