SS&C | Blue Prism Developer (DEV01) Certification Sample Questions

02. An action called 'Get Quote Details' fails with the following exception detail:
Internal: Failed to perform Step 1 in Read Stage 'Read Stage Details' on page 'Get Quote Details' - Unable to match any windows with the query terms
What does this exception indicate?
a) The 'Get Quote Details' action no longer exists in the Business Object
b) The Object is attempting to attach to a window that does not exist
c) An element referenced in the 'Read Stage Details' stage could not be found
d) The Object is connected to several windows that contain a 'Get Quote Details' page

03. What is a best practice when implementing Wait stages?
a) Unconditional Wait stage after every stage in the process.
b) Conditional Wait stage after a Navigation stage.
c) Unconditional Wait stage after a Write stage.
d) Conditional Wait stage after every stage in the Process.

04. A developer is building an automation that occasionally fails when submitting a customer form due to unpredictable network latency. They want to retry the action only when transient errors occur, but skip retries for permanent failures such as validation errors.
How should the developer implement this behavior in the process?
a) Use a Retry loop and apply logic to assess error type and retry count
b) Ignore the exception and continue to the next item in the queue
c) Extend the timeout setting to reduce the chance of retrying
d) Add multiple branches to handle each failure using Calculation stages

05. Which Blue Prism internal business object contains actions that could ensure only a single Digital Worker accesses a system at any given time?
a) Credentials
b) Environment Locking
c) Data Gateways
d) Work Queues

06. A developer needs to verify whether a text field has been populated before the process continues. Which expression confirms the field is not empty?
a) [ItemID] <> null()
b) [ItemID] = null()
c) [ItemID] <> ""
d) [ItemID] = ""

07. In the standard Blue Prism Business Object template, which action prepares the object so that later actions can interact with the target application?
a) Initialize
b) Get Next Item
c) Release
d) Clean Up

08. A Blue Prism Developer is building a process for the inception of new customers. All the data arrives in Blue Prism through a New Customer form, and some of the submitted data contains errors and blank values. Following best practice, where should the Developer build the logic that checks the data is correct?
a) An action on the Main Page of the Process calling a Validation Business Object
b) A Business Object dedicated to validation of the customer data
c) A page within a Business Object containing validation logic for the customer fields
d) A separate page within the Process containing the validation logic

09. When implementing an Environment Lock with a Digital Worker, which of the following is a key consideration to ensure effective and efficient automation?
a) Give every process its own uniquely named lock so that two processes never queue for the same token.
b) Allow several Digital Workers to hold the same Environment Lock at once so that none of them has to wait for the resource.
c) Release the lock on every route out of the protected section, including the exception path, so a failure cannot leave the resource held.
d) Rely on the token expiring by itself rather than releasing it, so that no extra stages are needed in the flow.

10. During a code review, a senior developer notices that the newly built process lacks consistent naming conventions and does not follow the organization's standard structure. The team also observes that no foundational documents were referenced during the build.
Which action should the developer take to align the process with Blue Prism's development standards?
a) Rebuild with a process template and refer to design guidance
b) Use impact analysis documents to correct business behavior
c) Apply naming conventions by updating the object logic
d) Modify test plans to reflect naming used during development
