Testlify helps you identify the best talent from anywhere in the world, with a seamless experience that candidates and hiring teams love every step of the way.

1

Arithmetic Operator

Arithmetic operators in PHP are used to perform mathematical operations on values. Some common arithmetic operators in PHP include: + for addition, – for subtraction, * for multiplication, / for division, % for modulus (finding the remainder after division).

2

Basic Syntax

Basic syntax in PHP refers to the basic structure and conventions used in PHP code. This includes the use of variables, control structures (such as loops and conditionals), and functions.

3

Printing Function

Printing functions in PHP are used to output text or other data to the screen or to a file. The most common printing function in PHP is echo, which can be used to output a string or other data type.

4

Memory Allocation

Memory allocation in PHP refers to the process of allocating memory to variables and other data structures in a PHP program. This is typically done automatically by the PHP runtime, but it can also be controlled using functions such as memory_get_usage() and memory_get_peak_usage(), which allow you to monitor and manage memory usage in your PHP programs.

5

Conditional Statements and Loops

Conditional statements in PHP are used to execute different blocks of code based on the evaluation of a given condition. The most common conditional statements in PHP are if, else, and elseif. These statements allow you to specify a condition that is evaluated to be either true or false, and execute a block of code depending on the result. Loops in PHP are used to execute a block of code repeatedly until a certain condition is met. There are several types of loops in PHP, including for, while, and do while.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions for PHP

A PHP assessment test is designed to measure a programmer’s proficiency in the PHP programming language. It typically consists of a set of questions that test a programmer’s understanding of topics such as data types, control structures, loops, functions, and arrays.

The purpose of a PHP assessment test is to help employers determine which programmers are best suited for a particular programming job or project. It can also be used to help programmers assess their own level of proficiency in the language.

PHP developer tests can be used to evaluate candidates based on their technical skills.

Recruiters can combine the PHP developer test along with other tests to assess candidates’ soft skills.

The PHP developer test helps companies hire the best candidates early in the process.
