Technical testing helps identify the right candidates for jobs by determining their existing technical knowledge and abilities. It provides a true benchmark of candidates' skills that compliments interviews. The tests are delivered remotely as self-administered tests or in a supervised online environment. The resulting report provides insight into candidates' strengths, proficiencies, weaknesses, and comparison to others. It gives hiring managers more informed decisions than interviews alone by assessing candidates' development needs before hiring.
A Methodology for Enhancing Programming Competence of Students Using ParikshakArchana Rane-Sharma
It is often observed that students in computer
science and information technology lack the ability to practically apply the programming concepts to solve problems. Absence of this vital ability, limits the opportunities for these novices in the computer field. Taking a closer look at the problem, we observe that deficiency lies in the methodology of training that is imparted to them - limited practice opportunities, excessive focus given to syntax and semantics of the target programming language,
untimely feedback due to manual grading, insufficiently addressed pedagogical aspects, etc.
In this presentation, we discuss a teaching methodology to enhance the programming skills of students, using an in-house program grading tool – Parikshak. We have incorporated various
pedagogical elements in teaching/learning programming in this methodology. Based on our results and findings of adopting this methodology in one of our post graduate diploma program, we strongly believe this combination of pedagogy and technology provides a viable solution for significant improvement in the programming abilities of students.

A Quick overview of Behaviour Driven Development (BDD)Alan Parkinson
Many people believe Behaviour Driven Development (BDD) is about Test Automation. It's true that BDD and ATDD tools such as Cucumber and SpecFlow are often used in Test Automation however, that is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg. This is a rather narrow viewpoint which completely misses the benefits brought about by the hugely improved requirements and time saved as well as the cost savings brought about by these changes in workflow and development methodology.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

2. Recruiting people with the right technical skills and knowledge to
undertake key business deliverables can be critical to your competitive
capabilities. But how can you ensure your recruitment process is giving
you the best chance of finding the right candidates for the job?
Technical testing helps to identify the right candidates
by determining their existing technical knowledge
and abilities. Used alongside or prior to interviewing
candidates, it will substantiate and confirm their skill levels
enabling you to evaluate candidates based on reliable and
validated information.
Certainly, asking the appropriate technical questions
is essential, but a technical test will give you a true
benchmark of candidates’ skills.
A BETTER INFORMED HIRING
DECISION
OBJECTIVELY MEASURE A
CANDIDATE’S SUITABILITY
Hudson can provide a range of technical assessments
which cover Programming, Development, Administration
and Technical Support of applications, languages,
databases and operating systems.
These complimentary assessments can be delivered
remotely as self administered tests, or can be delivered
online in a supervised environment administered by
Hudson.
The resulting report will provide insight into candidates’
strengths, proficiencies and weaknesses, detailing level
of knowledge across specific subject areas, work speed
in comparison to others, and how well the test taker can
apply their knowledge.
Technical testing will provide more information on a
candidate than a standard interview alone and will
also enable you to assess and plan around potential
development areas for a candidate before they join the
business.
As well as reducing time spent on inappropriate
candidates, it can also quicken the evaluation process.
For temporary positions, tests provide quick and easy
screening of candidates. For permanent roles, testing
will help to ensure time and money are not wasted on a
candidate with a different level of skill to that which is
required.
Enhancing the screening and selection process will instil
greater confidence, and offers added value to the service
we provide to you and ultimately guide you in making a
better informed decision.
3. The question and difficulty level is dynamically selected based on the assessment-taker’s previous responses,
eliminating questions that are too easy or difficult.
Both questions and answers are weighted and scored based on difficulty, importance and accuracy.
The resulting report will form a proficiency profile of the candidate, which includes necessary knowledge,
understanding, practical experience, work speed, and strengths and weaknesses within the discipline.
