Take-home test
The take-home test will be released on Tuesday 21st April 2020 at 9:00am. You will have until 9am on Thursday 23rd April 2020 to submit your solution to Chime.
The test will take the form of a practical exercise done through Chime so you should make sure you are confident using the system beforehand.
Note: that there will be no acceptance tests on Chime to check your solution. It's up to you to write your own tests to convince yourself your program works.
A mock version of the test is provided below for you to practice and to give you an idea of what will be expected.
