About the C# (coding): data structures test

C# is a modern, type-safe, and object-oriented programming language that enables programmers to quickly and easily build solutions for the Microsoft .NET platform. It is widely used for the development of mobile applications, games, and enterprise software.

Working with and implementing data structures is crucial to the success of a developer. An effective data structure enables developers to effectively manage, organize, and represent data. Data structures are often implemented as objects, so the ability to effectively work with objects and understand object-oriented programming is an equally important skill to have.

This C# coding test presents candidates with a real-life scenario and gives them 30 minutes to implement a data structure that meets the given requirements. Candidates can run the code against a selected number of test cases to see if they are on track. After submission, the code is automatically scored based on another set of test cases that also covers exceptions or corner cases. You will be able to play back how the code came about in the coding editor.

Review from G2

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.

The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.

For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.

I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.

For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
