I have a technical Laravel test

Hello guys, This might be a lil off topic but I have no place where to ask except here; So I got a job interview as a backend Laravel Developer. My first interview went really good the CEO/ CTO interviewed me he showed me the company and introduced me with the backend dev team. After an hour of questions he said that I was the best he got to interview so far. He said If you are applying for other jobs please do not accept them. Then he said to come on another interview for the technical test challenge (coding). The company mainly develops Laravel e comerce. Any idea what a Laravel coding test might be ?

@leorent Obviously, no one can know what the test will be based on. But, I would thoroughly review Laravel Cashier (even Laravel Spark is based on cashier) so that you can answer questions related to that. It is very common to encounter Cashier with a Laravel e-commerce site. There other similar products out in the wild that you can read about with a Google search. But, I would concentrate on Cashier because it is in the same eco system. Good luck!

How long did you get to do the test? Did you complete it? And did you have access to the internet?

@leorent The problem with those kind of interviews is that the people on the other are sometimes egoist and think everyone else does it wrong or does not know as much as them. The coding test such as the one you were given is an example of that kind of attitude. These people are more interested in seeing if anyone can do it rather judge you by the things that make a good team member and a coder who is productive. Anyhow, obviously, I am not a big believer in tests like that. I have worked on many projects with people who do well on those tests but can seem to play nice with others and contribute to the bottom line. Ok, rant over. I hope it works out for you.

I'm also preparing for coding interviews. How was your interview test? I know its an old thread but still would like to know your test experience.

I'm practicing on platforms like interviewbit for preparing for coding tests.
