About the test

The WordPress online test assesses knowledge of creating and customizing web sites with the WordPress CMS and the PHP programming language. 

The assessment includes work-sample tasks such as:

  • Working with plugins and themes to customize a website.
  • Configuring a Wordpress instance to tune performance and control access to features.
  • Implementing a function that serializes to/from JSON.

A good WordPress developer needs a solid understanding of the WordPress CMS and the PHP programming language to create websites, as well as know how to configure and customize them using built-in WordPress features.

Graphs

A turn-based strategy game has a grid with water and land. The grid contains a true value where it's water and false where it's land.

The player controls a boat unit with a particular movement pattern. It can only move to fixed destinations from its current position as shown in the image below:

movement pattern

The boat can only move in a direct path through water to the possible destinations, so a destination will become unreachable if there is land in the way. 

Implement the canTravelTo function, that checks whether a destination is reachable by the boat. It should return true for destinations that are reachable according to the pattern above, and false for unreachable or out of bounds destinations which are outside the grid. 

For example, consider the following code:

$gameMatrix = [
    [false, true,  true,  false, false, false],
    [true,  true,  true,  false, false, false],
    [true,  true,  true,  true,  true,  true],
    [false, true,  true,  false, true,  true],
    [false, true,  true,  true,  false, true],
    [false, false, false, false, false, false],
  ];
  

echo canTravelTo($gameMatrix, 3, 2, 2, 2) ? "true\n" : "false\n"; // true, Valid move
echo canTravelTo($gameMatrix, 3, 2, 3, 4) ? "true\n" : "false\n"; // false, Can't travel through land
echo canTravelTo($gameMatrix, 3, 2, 6, 2) ? "true\n" : "false\n"; // false, Out of bounds

The following image shows valid and invalid destinations when the boat is in the position (3, 2):

Sample candidate report

What others say

Decorative quote

Simple, straight-forward technical testing

TestDome is simple, provides a reasonable (though not extensive) battery of tests to choose from, and doesn't take the candidate an inordinate amount of time. It also simulates working pressure with the time limits.
