About the test

The Git online test evaluates a candidate’s ability to work with the source control tool Git, including the knowledge of how to commit changes, merge branches, checkout commits, and other source control mechanisms.

It’s an ideal test for pre-employment screening of candidates applying for any developer role. A good candidate for any job requiring the use of source control will be able to display competency with using Git, the most popular version control tool. This Git test can be used to screen large groups of candidates to select only those with the required Git knowledge to bring in for an interview.
