Hi BHT,
I was invited to pass a technical programming test for an Android App developper Job after being selected in the first interview, and they asked me to bring my laptop, so I was wondering what kind of test it will be? could it be developping a little application or something more advanced?
Has any one passed a technical programming test?
Thank you in advance
 
Don't expect anything to do from scratch.

It could be any of the below:
  • To make the test cases to pass by adding bits and pieces of code. It could be fixing a bug or an unimplemented functionality.
  • Debug the existing code.
  • Adding a new component to an existing application.
Most importantly, they would like to know about your knowledge on Android life cycle. Be sure to prepare as it can be asked.
You may need to explain the entire flow in android life cycle using an existing application.

If you ever confused about the concepts, feel free to refer the below link, these are the topics for Google Android Certification though.

Their certification is based on 24 hrs live practical test, so it must be in your scope.

During my developpement cycle i usually use internet to search for some code or functionnalities, in the test should I do everything without getting connected?

Of course. Don't know in which Coutry you are going to take the interview in, but it in the US it is common to get asked a questiont which you have to solve on a Whiteboard, without any help.
Usually this is done for Internships or Jr. Positions. On the other hand, why would you have to take your Laptop with you.
