Non-googleable questions


We have a very high focus on the quality of questions that test for on-the-job skills. Every question is non-googleable and we have a very high bar for the level of subject matter experts we onboard to create these questions. We have crawlers to check if any of the questions are leaked online. If/ when a question gets leaked, we get an alert. We change the question for you & let you know.

How we design questions

These are just a small sample from our library of 15,000+ questions. The actual questions on this Appium (Android) Test will be non-googleable.

Registration Queue
Logic
Queues
Sorting By Custom Order
Solve
We want to register students for the next semester. All students have a receipt which shows the amount pending for the previous semester. A positive amount (or zero) represents that the student has paid extra fees, and a negative amount represents that they have pending fees to be paid. The students are in a queue for the registration. We want to arrange the students in a way such that the students who have a positive amount on the receipt get registered first as compared to the students who have a negative amount. We are given a queue in the form of an array containing the pending amount.
For example, if the initial queue is [20, 70, -40, 30, -10], then the final queue will be [20, 70, 30, -40, -10]. Note that the sequence of students should not be changed while arranging them unless required to meet the condition.
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The first line of the input is the length of the array. The second line contains all the elements of the array.
- The input is already parsed into an array of "strings" and passed to a function. You will need to convert string to integer/number type inside the function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.

For the example discussed above, the input will be:
5
20 70 -40 30 -10

Your code needs to print the following to the standard output:
20 70 30 -40 -10

Visitors Count
Strings
Logic
String Parsing
Character Counting
Solve
A manager hires a staff member to keep a record of the number of men, women, and children visiting the museum daily. The staff will note W if any women visit, M for men, and C for children. You need to write code that takes the string that represents the visits and prints the count of men, woman and children. The sequencing should be in decreasing order. 
Example:

Input:
WWMMWWCCC

Expected Output: 
4W3C2M

Explanation: 
‘W’ has the highest count, then ‘C’, then ‘M’. 
⚠️⚠️⚠️ Note:
- The input is already parsed and passed to a function.
- You need to "print" the final result (not return it) to pass the test cases.
- If the input is- “MMW”, then the expected output is "2M1W" since there is no ‘C’.
- If any of them have the same count, the output should follow this order - M, W, C.

  • Expertise in configuring Android development environment
  • Understanding of dependencies and their management in Android projects
  • Proficiency in handling exceptions and errors in Android development
  • Familiarity with UI automation using Appium framework
  • Experience in writing test cases for Android applications
  • Knowledge of performance optimization techniques in Android

Once the test is sent to a candidate, the candidate receives a link in email to take the test. For each candidate, you will receive a detailed report with skills breakdown and benchmarks to shortlist the top candidates from your pool.

What topics are covered in the Appium Android Online Test?

Android Simulation: Android Simulation is the process of replicating the behavior of an Android device or application on a different platform or environment. It allows developers to test their apps in various scenarios and configurations, ensuring their functionality and performance under different conditions, such as different Android versions, device types, and hardware specifications.

Debugging: Debugging is the process of identifying and fixing issues and bugs in software code. It involves analyzing the code, tracing its execution, and diagnosing errors or unexpected behavior. In the context of app development, proper debugging skills are crucial to identify and resolve issues related to functionality, performance, and compatibility.

Scalability: Scalability refers to the ability of a software system or application to handle an increasing workload or growing user base without sacrificing performance or stability. In the case of Android apps, measuring scalability helps assess the application's ability to handle a large number of concurrent users, handle increased data processing or storage requirements, and maintain responsiveness under high load.

Compatibility: Compatibility in the context of software refers to the ability of an application to function as intended across different platforms, devices, or software versions. Assessing compatibility skills in this test helps determine a candidate's understanding of platform-specific requirements, such as adapting the app's UI and functionality to different screen sizes, hardware capabilities, and software versions.

Configuration: Configuration refers to the setup and adjustment of various parameters and settings of an application or system. In the case of Android app development, configuration skills involve understanding and correctly configuring key components, such as permissions, dependencies, device capabilities, and network settings, to ensure optimal performance, compatibility, and security.

Dependencies: Dependencies are external libraries, frameworks, or modules that an application relies on to function properly. Understanding and managing dependencies is essential to ensure that an app has access to necessary functionalities and resources, and that it remains compatible with the required libraries or frameworks. The measurement of dependency skills in this test evaluates a candidate's ability to identify, include, update, and manage dependencies efficiently.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

What experience level can I use this test for?

Each Adaface assessment is customized to your job description/ ideal candidate persona (our subject matter experts will pick the right questions for your assessment from our library of 10000+ questions). This assessment can be customized for any experience level.

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.

I'm a candidate. Can I try a practice test?

No. Unfortunately, we do not support practice tests at the moment. However, you can use our sample questions for practice.

What is the cost of using this test?

You can check out our pricing plans.

Can I get a free trial?

Yes, you can sign up for free and preview this test.

I just moved to a paid plan. How can I request a custom assessment?
