Common questions
Is this test about Laravel?
No. It covers plain PHP, which every framework builds on. Framework questions come in later interview rounds.
Which PHP version?
PHP 8. Snippets use typed parameters and arrow functions where natural.
Why so much about security?
Because it is what separates a usable junior developer from one who creates incidents. Interviewers ask about injection and XSS early.
