One of the most common questions I receive from aspiring Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) candidates is:
“What should I actually practice before the exam?”
After completing the CKA and spending countless hours working through labs, troubleshooting clusters, and exploring Kubernetes documentation, I realized that passing the exam is less about memorizing commands and more about being comfortable performing common Kubernetes tasks quickly and accurately.
The CKA is a performance-based certification. You are expected to work with real Kubernetes clusters, solve problems, and complete administrative tasks under time pressure.
In this article, I’ve compiled 30 Kubernetes tasks that every CKA candidate should practice before exam day.
