Technical test

Background:

< describe the background of the challenge >

The challenge:

< add the challenge specification here >

You can spend as much time as you wish to come up with a solution that you’re proud of. To pass the test, you don’t need to care about <describe unwanted technical "red herings">

Think of this as an open source project in that sense that if you stumbled across it on a community such as GitHub, what would you want it to look like? The only requirement is that the solution is written in < your programminng language preference if there is any >. Frameworks, or lack thereof, is entirely up to you.

Hint: We’re looking for a high-quality submission with great application architecture, not a “just get it done”-like approach. Stay away from frameworks/boilerplates that handle everything for you, or use them only as a thin layer, so we can see how you structure applications yourself.

Extra mile bonus points

  • Application logging
  • Containerisation
  • Authentication
  • API client documentation (for example swagger)
  • Build script / CI
  • Data storage
  • Anything else you feel may benefit your solution from a technical perspective.

What we will be assessing

Area Max score
Functionality (does it work?) 5 points
Code Quality 5 points
Solution Design 5 points
Problem Solving 5 points
Automated Tests 5 points
Overall Score 25 points

Scoring algorithm:

def have_you_passed_the_test(overall_score, bonus_points):
    if overall_score >= 19:
        return True
    elif overall_score > 16:
        return overall_score + bonus_points >= 19

    return False
