Which versions of the the J2EE technologies are tested for in the IBM Enterprise Connectivity test (483)?
I would like to know for EJB, Servlets, JSP, JNDI, etc. In other words are the questions based on J2EE 1.2 or J2EE 1.3 specifications?

Regards,
Eswar

[Sohail Ahmed]

Hi ranchers,
IBm (483) test follows J2EE 1.3 specification.

[Tony Chen]

Is IBM Test 483 really for J2EE V1.3 ?
According to the objective page, the name for the test is still Enterprise Connectivity Test (with J2EE, V1.2). Did you get questions about JSP 1.2, Servlet 2.3 and EJB 2.0 in the real exam? Thanks!
