What is a Dart skills test?

Dart is a modern, general-purpose, open-source programming language first developed by Google. It's ideal for mobile apps due to its fast performance, but it can also be used to create Internet of Things (IoT) and web applications. For such projects, Dart works hand in hand with the Flutter framework, so Dart coders must learn both.

When hiring developers proficient in languages such as Dart, resumes and traditional interviews alone won't cut it – you need to see coders' skills in action. A Dart skills test is an online coding challenge that candidates solve within a set time limit.

Assessment platforms like TestGorilla calculate the overall correctness score and rank your dev candidates. However, you can also assess the code qualitatively to check for general skills such as readability, debugging, and efficiency, as well as Dart-specific skills, including using null safety features and Dart DevTools.

Why use Dart skills tests?

Objectively rank top candidates: Put bias aside and find your top dev candidates using highly valid, reliable, secured tests.
Test real-world programming skills: Predict candidates' on-the-job performance with expert-crafted universal coding tests. Skills-based hiring reduces mis-hires by 97%.
See how candidates program: Use the timeline report to check developers' thinking process, not just the final outputs.
Assess developers holistically: Only interview the crème-de-la-crème. Test developers early, not only across coding skills but also soft skills such as problem-solving and communication.
Go language-agnostic: Let candidates solve certain exercises in the language of their choice to spot top-notch tech talent.

What roles can you hire for with a Dart coding test?

Dart/Flutter web front-end engineer

A Dart/Flutter front-end web developer designs, develops, and maintains dynamic user interfaces. They use Flutter workflows and Dart's declarative syntax to build responsive layouts, manage state effectively, and optimize app performance. Experience with Flutter widgets, UI testing, and project-relevant libraries is key.

Dart/Flutter full-stack developer

Dart/Flutter full-stack developers use Dart for end-to-end development across the front and back end. They skillfully use Dart syntax and Flutter state management for user interfaces while working with the server-side in languages such as Python and Node.js. Version control system experience (e.g., Git) and performance tuning are also essential.

Dart/Flutter mobile engineer

These mobile engineers create responsive cross-platform mobile applications using Flutter and Dart. They expertly use Dart’s hot reload feature for faster development and testing and Flutter's animation framework for smooth UI interactions. Also, they effectively use APIs (e.g., REST, WebSocket) to connect front-ends to server-side applications.

Dart/Flutter architect

A Dart/Flutter architect is a senior Dart programmer who architects mobile/web applications using Flutter. They focus on app stability, performance, and scalability and effectively collaborate with UI and engineering teams to meet high-level business goals. They have deep experience with Dart concepts, such as writing memory-efficient asynchronous code.

Dart coding tests FAQ

TestGorilla's universal coding test helps you evaluate Dart developers by calculating their correctness scores for individual coding exercises (i.e., whether the algorithm inputs produce the required outputs). Once your candidates complete their assessments, our platform ranks them in order of their overall scores. That said, you can (and should) check the quality of the code itself rather than the correctness scores alone.

Yes, a Dart coding assessment can be suitable for all job levels. TestGorilla offers entry-level and intermediate tests to evaluate developers based on their coding proficiency. You can add up to four extra tests according to the seniority and focus of your dev role – from programming tests, such as debugging, to situational tests, such as leadership and people management. Plus, you can always create a custom test from scratch to match the level of proficiency required.
