01SuiteCommerce Platform and Architecture
This domain tests whether you understand how a SuiteCommerce Advanced (SCA) store is assembled and served: what runs in the shopper's browser, what runs in NetSuite, and which build-and-publish step actually puts a change in front of a shopper. Presentation : Backbone.js/Marionette views plus Handlebars templates, compiled by the gulp build into the distro/ output, then pushed to NetSuite.

This domain covers the merchandising side of the storefront: how pages and content get edited, and how the theme layer (templates plus compiled Sass) is changed without breaking the build. Site Builder is the tab-based administration UI of SuiteCommerce Standard / Site Builder sites: Home, Category, Search and similar tabs, where non-developers add custom content, images and HTML, and choose layout and theme options.

This domain tests the backend behind a SuiteCommerce storefront: SuiteScript 2.x scripts that feed the front end or react to shopper actions, and how to keep them inside governance limits. Custom storefront logic is exposed through SuiteScript endpoints (RESTlets, or endpoints served by an SSP application) and called from the front end's service layer.
345 words, about 2 min04Frontend Customization and Extension Development
This domain tests building the shopper-facing layer the supported way - as an extension module rather than edited core files - with a build you can repeat. A module lives in Modules/<vendor <name / and ships an ns.package.json whose gulpConfig maps its folders (JavaScript, Templates, Sass, assets) into build output.
