Cover and Covered object should belong to

  1. Same ClassGroup

  2. Same AccessGroup

  3. Same WorkPool

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega's covering feature, both the Cover (parent) and Covered (child) work objects must belong to the same ClassGroup. This requirement ensures proper inheritance and processing rules apply consistently. AccessGroup and WorkPool control different aspects of security and work routing.

Which of the following is mandatory while creating a class

  1. Pattern Inheritance

  2. Direct Inheritance

  3. Both

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Direct Inheritance is mandatory when creating a class - every class must specify its direct parent class using direct inheritance. Pattern Inheritance is optional and provides additional fallback mechanisms for rule resolution beyond the direct inheritance chain.

What is the Pattern Inheritance parent for MICO-Finance-

  1. Mico-Finance

  2. Finance-

  3. Mico-Finance-

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Pattern inheritance works by removing the trailing dash segment and moving up the hierarchy. For MICO-Finance-, removing the trailing dash gives Mico-Finance as the pattern inheritance parent. This is how Pega's pattern inheritance algorithm navigates the class structure.

System Architect works with

  1. Properties

  2. Flows

  3. Harness

  4. Correspondence Rules
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The System Architect role in Pega primarily works with Properties - defining data structures, data types, and property settings. While System Architects may touch other elements, Properties are their core focus. Other roles handle flows, harnesses, and correspondence rules.

If an access role is specified to a parent class it applies to

  1. Parent Class only

  2. Parent class and all its child classes

  3. Parent class and all its child classes unless explicitly overridden by another access rule

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega's access control inheritance model, when an access role is specified at a parent class level, it automatically applies to that parent class AND all its child classes throughout the class hierarchy. This cascading inheritance ensures consistent permissions across related classes. However, if a child class has an explicit access rule that overrides the inherited role, the child's specific rule takes precedence for that class.

Which Default Property Types cannot be modified

  1. px

  2. py

  3. A and B

  4. pz
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Pega property types starting with pz are protected system properties that cannot be modified. Properties starting with px are standard Pega properties that can be modified, and py properties are also editable. The pz prefix designation is specifically reserved for locked, read-only system properties that maintain platform integrity.

Which one of the following statements is true ?

  1. Covered work objects inherit from Cover-Object- class

  2. Ordinary work objects inherit from the Work-Object- class

  3. Folders may contain only one covered work object

  4. Folders may be a work object
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega's class hierarchy, ordinary work objects inherit from the Work-Object- base class, making option B true. Covered work objects inherit from Work-Cover- class, not Cover-Object-. Folders can contain multiple covered work objects, and folders themselves are typically organizing structures rather than work objects.

Cover and Covered object should belong to

  1. Same ClassGroup

  2. Same AccessGroup

  3. Same WorkPool

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega's covering mechanism, both the cover work object and covered work objects must belong to the same ClassGroup. This ensures structural consistency and proper inheritance relationships. AccessGroups control security, WorkPools manage assignment routing, but ClassGroup membership is the requirement for covering.

Which of the following is mandatory while creating a class

  1. Pattern Inheritance

  2. Direct Inheritance

  3. Both

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega, every class must specify a direct parent class through Direct Inheritance, which is mandatory. Pattern Inheritance is optional and uses naming patterns to find parents automatically. Therefore Direct Inheritance is the required component.

What is the Pattern Inheritance parent for MICO-Finance-

  1. Mico-Finance

  2. Finance-

  3. Mico-Finance-

  4. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Pattern Inheritance works by removing trailing characters (hyphens, numbers) from class names to find parent classes. For 'MICO-Finance-', removing the trailing hyphen gives 'MICO-Finance'. The dash is part of the pattern, not the base name.

Which of the following can only return a Boolean value?

  1. (a) Decision map

  2. (b) Decision tree

  3. (c) Decision table

  4. (d) When rule
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

When rules (Rule-Declare-When) evaluate conditions and return only Boolean true/false results. Decision tables, trees, and maps can return various values - strings, numbers, or other data types. Only When rules are restricted to Boolean outputs.

Which of the following classes is/are abstract:

  1. a) PegaRP-Work-Object-Admin-

  2. b) PegaRP-Data-ProductArea

  3. c) PegaRP-Work-Object-Admin

  4. d) PegaRP-Work-Project

  5. e) All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

In Pega, abstract classes cannot create work objects and end with a hyphen. 'PegaRP-Work-Object-Admin-' ends with a hyphen, indicating it's abstract. 'PegaRP-Work-Object-Admin' and others without hyphens are concrete classes that can create instances.

Give the correct sequence for creating classes for this particular example: @baseclass I. PegaRP- II. PegaRP-Data- III. PegaRP-Data-Product- IV. PegaRP-Work- V. PegaRP-Work-Object- VI. PegaRP-Work-Object-Admin- VII. PegaRP-Work-Project- VIII. PegaRP-Work-Project-Inquiry-

  1. a) I, II, IV, III, V, VII, VI, VIII

  2. b) I, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, II, III

  3. c) I, IV, II, V, VII, III, VI, VIII

  4. d) I, II, IV, V, VII, III, VI, VIII
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The correct sequence starts with the base, then creates Work classes hierarchically (IV→V→VI→VII→VIII) before Data classes (II→III). This establishes the work structure first, then data structures. Option B follows this pattern correctly.
