Coding Test Report - Playback Code and Test Case Analysis

In this guide, we’ll assist you with viewing the candidate's reports for coding assessments. There are 2 aspects in Test reports -


  1. Using Playback feature to play the recording of their code editor to see how the candidate arrived to the output
  2. Use Show Diff feature to see why a test case failed in their coding question


  1. USING PLAYBACK FEATURE TO SEE HOW THE CANDIDATE ARRIVED TO THE OUTPUT


1.1. Log in to your account at https://app.xobin.com/signin


1.2. In the left Navbar, Visit the Assessments tab


1.3. In Assessments, you’ll find a View Reports button for every assessment in the Dashboard. Clicking on it will open the report section of that assessment.


1.4 Click on Full Report to get a detailed view.




1.5 If you scroll to the coding question, you'll see 2 options. One is Play and other is Show Diff. The Code Editor in Xobin auto-records whatever actions a candidate does and is available in the reports for the recruiters to see how they're approaching a coding question. Typically, it helps in assessing their problem-solving ability.



1.6 First select the speed level in which you want the video to be played (3x/2x/1x). Once the level is selected, click on Play. The video will show how the candidate started till how they finished. You can click on Pause anytime to stop.



  1. USING SHOW DIFF FEATURE TO ANALYZE THE MARKS SCORED BY A CANDIDATE


The Show Diff can be used to know why a candidate got a particular score in a coding question. EG here is a question of Medium Difficulty with 20 points.


The Show Diff clearly highlights the Input, Expected Output for the input and Received Output (the Output produced by a candidate's code for the given input). The **difference column ** pinpoints the difference between the Expected Output and Received Output to show the recruiter where and what exactly went wrong.
