Google認證的Android助理開發人員：考試演練 (Google Certified Associate Android Developer: Exam Walkthrough)

UPDATE (24th July, 2018)

更新(2018年7月24日)

The certification exam is available again! The exam duration has been reduced to 8 hours and the ‘Exam Content’ section has also been updated.

認證考試再次可用！考試時間已縮短至8小時 ，并且“考試內容”部分也已更新。

UPDATE (28th May, 2018)

更新(2018年5月28日)

The Associate Android Developer Certification exam is no longer available. Most probably, the certification team may be coming up with a revised certification exam, that would have multiple levels and probably support for Kotlin as well.

不再有Android開發者認證協會認證考試。很有可能，認證團隊可能會提出修訂的認證考試，該考試將具有多個級別，并且可能也支持Kotlin。

Right now, you’ll be redirected to this form when you click ‘Sign Up’ on the certification page.

現在，單擊認證頁面上的“注冊”，您將被重定向到此表單。

When I wanted to appear for this certification exam, I had no clue what the exam interface would look like. I searched for the same but I found no results. It was then that I decided that I would take screenshots of my exam and create a blog post which would in some way make future test takers less nervous after they go through it.

當我想參加此認證考試時，我不知道考試界面會是什么樣。我搜索了相同的內容，但沒有找到結果。那時，我決定為自己的考試截圖并創建一個博客文章，從某種程度上講，這將使將來的應試者在通過考試后不再緊張。

Hence, this post will walk you through the actual exam interface. If you’d like to know about my overall experience of the exam or you’ve no clue about what this certification is, read my certification exam experience, tips & FAQs post here. Here’s a link to the official Google certification page.

因此，本文將引導您完成實際的考試界面。如果您想了解我的整體考試經驗，或者不知道該認證是什么，請在此處閱讀我的認證考試經驗，技巧和常見問題解答。這是指向Google官方認證頁面的鏈接。

Before we proceed, I must clarify that this post does not contain any specifics about the exam, which in any way would make it easier to crack the exam. I’m not allowed to share any specifics (hence the edited pictures below) so please do not ask for the same in the comments section or via any other medium since this would be against the Certification Code of Ethics.

在繼續之前，我必須澄清一下，該帖子不包含有關考試的任何細節，無論如何，這將使考試更容易進行。我不允許分享任何詳細信息(因此，下面是經過編輯的圖片)，所以請不要在評論部分或通過任何其他媒介要求提供任何具體信息，因為這將違反《道德認證證書》 。

考試演練：發生時 (The Exam Walkthrough: As it happened)

#1: Pay for the exam here. At the time when I took the exam (15th July 2017), the fee was 6500 INR (or $149). Please make sure you’re logged in with the correct Google account — the Google account to which you want your certification linked to.

＃1 ：在這里支付考試費用。在我參加考試時(2017年7月15日)，費用為6500印度盧比(或149美元)。請確保您使用正確的Google帳戶登錄(您的認證要鏈接到該Google帳戶)。

After your payment is successful, you’ll see this screen:

付款成功后，您會看到以下屏幕：

It is not necessary to start the exam at that very moment. Your payment was successful, you can now opt to take the exam whenever you feel like.

沒必要在那一刻開始考試。付款成功，您現在可以隨時選擇參加考試。

#2: As soon as you click the ‘Start Exam’ button, you’ll have exactly 24 hours to submit your exam (The time limit used to be 48 hours when I took the exam as you can see in the image above). This is what the exam screen looks like:

＃2 ：點擊“開始考試”按鈕后，您將有24小時的時間提交考試(如上圖所示，我參加考試的時間限制為48小時)。這是檢查屏幕的外觀：

NOTE: Images have been edited to hide exam-specific data.

注意：圖像已被編輯以隱藏特定于考試的數據。

You can see the deadline of your submission at the top. I am a night owl so I started my exam at 2:09am on 15th July and hence my submission was due at 2:09 on the 17th of July.

您可以在頂部看到提交截止日期。我是夜貓子，所以我于7月15日凌晨2:09開始考試，因此我的提交應于7月17日凌晨2:09進行。

#3: After you are done with the coding part in your Android Studio, click on the 'Proceed to Submission’ button on the top right.

＃3 ：在完成Android Studio中的編碼部分后，單擊右上方的“繼續提交”按鈕。

Note that uploading your Android Studio project must happen within the 24 hours time:

請注意，上傳Android Studio項目必須在 24小時內完成：

#4: Next, after you choose your project file (.zip) for upload and hit 'Submit’, your file is processed. Don’t forget to agree to agree to the honor code by checking the box.

＃4 ：接下來，在選擇要上傳的項目文件(.zip)并點擊“提交”后，文件將被處理。別忘了通過選中復選框來同意同意榮譽碼。

Wait for the processing to complete until you get to this screen:

等待處理完成，直到出現以下屏幕：

Congratulations! You’ve submitted your exam successfully. Now you must get your identity verified. The documents that you upload during this process would be used to verify your identity again during your exit interview.

恭喜你！您已成功提交考試。現在，您必須驗證您的身份。您在此過程中上載的文檔將在退出面試期間再次用于驗證您的身份。

You also receive an email after your submission, informing you about the same:

提交后，您還會收到一封電子郵件，通知您以下內容：

You can complete the identity verification later but I opted to get done with it right after my exam submission and I recommend you to do the same.

您可以稍后再完成身份驗證，但我選擇在提交考試后立即完成身份驗證，因此建議您也這樣做。

#5: So to get started with your identity verification, click on ‘Start Identity Verification’ and then you’ll see this screen:

＃5 ：因此，要開始進行身份驗證，請單擊“開始身份驗證”，然后您會看到以下屏幕：

#6: If you would have completed the registration process successfully, you would’ve seen the above message which says ‘Identity verification pending. We will email you when the results are available.’

＃6 ：如果您可以成功完成注冊過程，則會看到上面的消息，上面寫著“身份驗證待處理。如果結果可用，我們將通過電子郵件發送給您。”

After a while, you’ll get an email stating that your identity verification was complete:

一段時間后，您會收到一封電子郵件，指出您的身份驗證已完成：

Now all you can do is sit back and (try to) relax until you get your exam result.

現在您所能做的就是坐下來放松一下，直到獲得考試成績。

On 19th of July 2017 — within 3 days of my exam submission, I got the following mail:

2017年7月19日，即在提交考試的三天內，我收到了以下郵件：

I had cleared the coding exam (yay!) and was now asked to select a date for my exit interview. I clicked on the link in the image above:

我已經完成了編碼考試(是！)，現在被要求選擇一次面試日期。我單擊了上圖中的鏈接：

There are many dates available for the exit interview. I had dates ranging from a couple of days after I received the above email to a few months in the future.

離開面試有很多日期。我收到上述電子郵件后的幾天到以后的幾個月不等。

I’m not sure if you can select the time for the interview, you can only select the date. As soon as you select a date, you get an email about the details of the interview — date, time, interviewer name and video call link for the interview. In the mail, you have the option to reschedule your interview or cancel it as well.

我不確定是否可以選擇面試時間，只能選擇日期。選擇日期后，您會收到一封有關面試詳細信息的電子郵件-日期，時間，面試官姓名和面試的視頻通話鏈接。在郵件中，您可以選擇重新安排采訪時間或取消采訪。

My interview was 15 minutes long and usually lasts that long or up to a maximum of 30 minutes. At the end of the interview, I was informed that I would receive my badge soon if they felt that all was well. If you want to know the details of the interview, read my other post here.

我的采訪時間為15分鐘，通常持續時間最長或最多30分鐘。采訪結束時，我被告知，如果他們覺得一切都很好，我會很快收到我的徽章。如果您想了解采訪的詳細信息，請在此處閱讀我的其他文章。

My interview took place on the 23rd of July and 5 days later, I got ‘the’ email.

我的采訪在7月23日進行，五天后，我收到了“ the”電子郵件。

I was now a Google Certified Associate Android Developer! ?

我現在是Google認證的Android助理開發人員！？

I was happy, but I had still not received my certification badge (Update: new certificate) yet. Then, 23 looooong days later, I received that as well.

我很高興，但是我仍然沒有收到認證徽章 ( 更新：新證書 )。然后， 23天后，我也收到了。

A few days later I received another email which had a feedback form and a PDF stating the benefits of becoming a Google certified Associate Android Developer as well as my responsibilities as one. This email was also a confirmation of my enrollment into the Google Developer Certification Alumni program.

幾天后，我收到了另一封包含反饋表和PDF的電子郵件，其中說明了成為Google認證的Android助理開發人員的好處以及我的職責。這封電子郵件也證實了我已加入Google Developer Certification Alumni計劃。

I hope this post helped you become less nervous if you’re planning on taking this certification exam sometime soon. If you’re one of those people who has already been certified, I hope it brought back fond memories of your experience.

我希望如果您打算不久后參加此認證考試，這篇文章可以幫助您減輕緊張感。如果您是已經通過認證的人之一，我希望它能帶回您的美好回憶。

Getting certified from Google does have its own benefits ?

從Google獲得認證有其自身的好處嗎？
