I woke up in the morning and saw this awesome news, smashed the CKA exam in the 1st attempt and the score was 90. I wanted to share some useful resources that helped me pass the CKA exam and a few tips that can help you prepare and hopefully pass if you are also planning to take it.
I practiced on version 1.16 and the test was on version 1.18 (changed just before a few days of my scheduled exam). That change hardly made any difference. Passing the exam was not possible without Mumshad Mannambeth's course on Udemy. A BIG THANK YOU for him!! The CKA exam covers the following topics:
2. Use an Aliasalias k=kubectl This means you can now just type “k” instead of “kubectl”. It might sound trivial but actually saves you a bunch of time. 3. BASH and VIMChances are you’re already familiar with Linux and have used bash or zsh and tools like vim extensively. 5. Slack CommunityThe slack community1 and community2 helped me a lot. I gained confidence and techniques on the channel. 6. K8 DocumentationOn kubernetes.io, you should read the entire exam curriculum and its relevant pages to understand it properly. you are allowed during the test to view the following websites:7. TroubleshootingYou should learn how to troubleshoot the cluster. When you are on Kubernetes.io, I'd recommend reading the following pages.8.
