HCTA practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how HCTA Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real HCTA exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The HCTA exam spans 9 domains: Understand Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Concepts (8% of the exam); Understand the Purpose of Terraform (8% of the exam); Understand Terraform Basics (11% of the exam); Use Terraform Outside of Core Workflow (8% of the exam); Interact with Terraform Modules (13% of the exam); Use the Core Terraform Workflow (9% of the exam); Implement and Maintain State (13% of the exam); Read, Generate, and Modify Configuration (16% of the exam); Understand HCP Terraform Capabilities (14% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Read, Generate, and Modify Configuration 16%; Understand HCP Terraform Capabilities 14%; Interact with Terraform Modules 13%; Implement and Maintain State 13%; Understand Terraform Basics 11%; Use the Core Terraform Workflow 9%; Understand Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Concepts 8%; Understand the Purpose of Terraform 8%; Use Terraform Outside of Core Workflow 8%.
