No Oracle doesn't do commits for checkpoint, log switch or shutdown normal.
It will only commit data explicitliy (using the commit command) or implicitly (DDL).
SQL*PLUS by default auto commits for you if you just exit after doing some DML.
But you can turn that off.

Wait a minute here.

Why would oracle do a commit on your transaction
just because it needs to do a checkpoint, logfile switch, or shutdown?

What if errors occur during validation?

Do you think Oracle will commit the data anyways?
