About the Test

This test assesses the candidate’s aptitude for Django, the best Python web framework, and their general knowledge of IT programming, language & framework, and the Django REST Framework (DRF) and their skill for working with Django and Python.

The assessment test for recruiting individuals skilled in the Django web development framework evaluates how they use the framework to develop codes and create efficient web browsable APIs. The test gauges the test taker’s knowledge of Django functions and the framework’s interaction with Python. Handling HTTP requests, working with HTML forms, models, templates, class-based views, migrations, and the testing methodology of Django are skills necessary for a developer using DRF, and these are assessed in this test.

The Django test helps identify developers who can create & maintain the architecture of web applications and write reusable & testable code. It can help spot individuals capable of interacting with front-end developers who create user-facing components & integrate them with server-side logic, and implement security & data protection systems.

This assessment is beneficial to identify skilled back-end developers, Django developers, and Python web developers who can customize and work hands-on with Django to create highly functional web applications. Candidates who score well in this test possess adequate knowledge of Python, Django’s Object Relational Mapper libraries, basics of application design, and front-end technology and have the ability to perform unit-testing & debugging effectively. They can successfully carry out tasks like creating models and templates, understanding & modifying URLs and using authentications & serializers.

The simple but powerful Django REST Framework (DRF) is the library in Django that is used to build RESTful APIs. The test taker’s general knowledge of using DRF for creating RESTful API modules, creating authentication, view sets, registering URL patterns, and performing Create, Read, Update, Delete (CRUD) functions using serializers are analyzed in this assessment.

Working with Django

Candidates capable of working with Django possess a thorough understanding of its Model-View-Template (MVT) Architecture which this assessment gauges. It measures their ability to create a Django project and URLs, views, models, templates, etc., in an application. Their exposure to fundamental features of Django, what it does, and how it works are assessed using this Django recruitment test.

4

Python

Python is the language in which the Django web application framework is written. Therefore, the candidate’s knowledge of Python, its use in Django projects, the Python data structures available in the Django framework, and writing Python codes while accessing Django models are tested using this assessment.

The test is created by a subject-matter expert

Testlify’s skill tests are designed by experienced SMEs (subject matter experts). We evaluate these experts based on specific metrics such as expertise, capability, and their market reputation. Prior to being published, each skill test is peer-reviewed by other experts and then calibrated based on insights derived from a significant number of test-takers who are well-versed in that skill area. Our inherent feedback systems and built-in algorithms enable our SMEs to refine our tests continually.
