The sample test is designed to give the candidate an idea of the content and format of the questions that will be on the certification exam. Performance on the sample test is NOT an indicator of performance on the certification exam. This should not be considered an assessment tool.
To prepare for this test, it is first recommended that you are familiar with the job role description and the parameters this certification is based on, as well as have knowledge of the topics outlined in the test objectives/skills measured on the test. Compare your own technical level to the test objectives and the recommended training resources, and then determine for yourself how much preparation you require. Note that these educational sources are recommended, but not required (*) before taking a certification test.
Before preparing for the certification test, it is recommended that you measure your current level of skill by taking the Sample Test (located from the “Sample/Assessment test” link above)..
You can prepare for the test through the Tutor Approach (classroom, instructor led course, and other sources) or the Self-Study Approach. Sources within each approach collectively cover the skills measured on the test.
To prepare via the Tutor Approach, take courses [ (WM665G or ZM665G) + (WM675G or ZM675G) ], and refer to the sources with an * in front of them. Note that per this formula, you are only required to take 2 courses.
To prepare via the Self-Study Approach, omit the courses, and refer to all other sources with and without the * in front.

Course Title: IBM Integration Bus V9 Application Development II
Course Duration: 4 Days
Course Number: WM675G
Course Abstract: Please also see alternative option ZM675G (listed under “Online Course”)
In this 5-day instructor-led course, you learn how to use IBM Integration Bus to develop, deploy, and support platform-independent message flow applications. These applications use various messaging topologies to transport messages between service requesters and service providers, and also allow the messages to be routed, transformed, and enriched during processing.
The course explores message flow problem determination, with an emphasis on identifying and recovering from errors in message flows. You learn how to construct message flows that use extended Structured Query Language (ESQL), Java, and the IBM Graphical Data Mapping editor to transform messages. The course also explores how to control the flow of messages by using various message processing nodes, and how to use databases and maps to transform and enrich messages during processing. You review various messaging transports at a high level and gain a basic understanding of how message flows can use web services, Java Message Service (JMS), and other transport mechanisms. Finally, you explore how to extend IBM Integration Bus by using adapters and other IBM products.
Throughout the course, hands-on lab exercises allow you to practice the skills and concepts that are presented in the lectures. The hands-on labs cover topics such as creating and testing message flows, message modeling, problem determination, and error handling.

This intermediate level certification is intended for solution developers who have the knowledge and experience to use IBM Integration Bus V9.0 to develop, deploy, tune, and support platform-independent message flow applications that use various messaging topologies to transport messages between service requesters and service providers, as well as enable the messages to be routed, transformed, validated, and enriched during processing.
The solution developers should be able to construct message flows that use available transformation options such as Extended Structured Query Language (ESQL), Java, and the IBM Graphical Data Mapping editor and develop message flows that use various transport mechanisms such as JMS and web services. They should also be able to use capabilities to aggregate messages from multiple sources, control sequences in a flow, and use decision services. They are expected to build and use message models such as Data Format Description Language (DFDL) for non-XML data and to define and implement integration services such as database and WebSphere MQ services.
In addition to development, the solution developers are also expected to generate IBM Integration Bus artifacts from patterns, and use troubleshooting, tuning and monitoring tools including event monitoring, ‘record and replay’, message flow statistics, and resource statistics.
Finally, these solution developers are expected to be able to extend IBM Integration Bus by using adapters and other products.
These solution developers are generally self-sufficient and can perform the tasks involved in the role with limited assistance from peers, product documentation, and vendor support services.
To attain the IBM Certified Solution Developer – IBM Integration Bus V9.0 certification, candidates must pass 1 test. To gain additional knowledge and skills, and prepare for this test based on the job role and test objectives, take the link to the tests below, and refer to the Test preparation tab.

Answer: C
QUESTION 4
A solution developer uses a JavaCompute node to implement the mapping in a message flow. As part of that mapping, the developer used a Java class from an external library. The class is defined to throw an exception.
How should the developer handle the exception in the JavaCompute node to capture the exception details and escalate to the default flow error handling?
A. Create and throw a MbException.
B. Create and throw a MbUserException.
