PHP frameworks

This page covers php frameworks and libraries. Despite PHP being an older programming language, the frameworks of PHP are still popular for several reasons.

1. Massive legacy: Millions of websites were built with PHP. Updating those websites require a knowledge of PHP. Companies prefer to update their code than to rebuild a website with an entirely different programming language and framework.
2. WordPress and CMS: Wordpress which powers 40% of all website is built with PHP. Many other CMS platforms use PHP as well.
3. Cost efficiency: PHP is open-source and free to use, which reduces development costs for businesses.
4. Improvements: PHP has become faster and more efficient because of regular improvements.
5. Community support: PHP has a massive developer community offering extensive resources, documentation, and third-party libraries.

Many popular PHP frameworks like Laravel, Symfony, and CodeIgniter use PHP as a programming language and you can find many exams on those frameworks on this page.

Since all these PHP frameworks use PHP as their core programming language, we strongly recommend that you also include the basic PHP exam in your job offer. This will help you assess whether the candidate has a solid understanding of PHP.

As with all our exams, the website will monitor the user by recording both their webcam and screen. These videos will be merged into one, allowing the employer to observe the candidate throughout the entire exam. This process helps prevent cheating through chatbots, friends, or unauthorized resources. At the end of the exam, our AI will analyze the candidate's performance and compile a PDF report with relevant statistics to provide insights into the candidate's abilities. Additionally, a global PDF report will compare the results of all your candidates, create a ranking, and highlight which candidate shows the most potential for your job offer.

There are several ways to send exams to a candidate or potential employee in this section:

1. Job Offer: You can attach any exam to your job offer. The candidate must pass the exam to be eligible to apply.
2. Email: You can send the exam link directly to a candidate’s email. Once they click on the link, they can take the exam, and you will receive both the video and the PDF report.
3. Direct Messaging: On the message page or within the WorkFrater chat box, you can send the exam directly to your candidate. By clicking on the exam link, the candidate can complete the exam, and you will receive both the video and the PDF report.

The link to all our exams is here. Most of the exams in this section consist of multiple-choice questions, where the user can select one correct answer from several options. Each question has a time limit, and users cannot skip a question and return to it later.

At the beginning of the exam, the website will ask users general questions about their knowledge of specific Java frameworks. Questions will cover the compilers and plugins used, as well as work experiences and personal projects.

After this initial interview step, the real questions begin. the questions are generally divided as follows:

1. Setup and Command Lines: Framework installation, package management, command lines
2. Navigation and Workspace: File structure, framework specificities
3. Core Tools: Components, states, lifecycle
4. Routing and Data: Client-side navigation
5. Optimization: Performance optimisation, lazy loading, concurrency and threading
6. Security: Password management, XSS prevention, csrf prevention, SQL injection
7. Plugins and Extensions: Managing external and third-party tools
8. Database integration: Integration of a simple SQL-like database

To complete the test, all PHP framework exams have a final section with basic PHP questions to assess the candidate’s understanding of core PHP concepts. The topics covered include:

• Variables
• Conditions
• Loops
• Methods
• Classes

Although all the exams in the PHP section include questions on the PHP programming language, we encourage you once again to include a basic PHP assessment test in your job offer.
