Coding rounds scored against server-side test cases

A coding round is only worth running if its result can be trusted, and the quiet failure in a lot of assessment tooling is that scoring depends on something the client sent back. Once the browser is part of the scoring path, the score measures the candidate's willingness to open developer tools.

HireOrbyt executes submissions in a sandboxed runtime and scores them against test cases stored server-side with the question. The candidate's browser submits code and nothing else.

What you get

Eleven runtimes

Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C, C++, Go, Ruby, Rust and more, executed in an isolated sandbox rather than on the candidate's machine.

Server-side test cases

Scoring uses the test cases stored with the question. Client-supplied cases are never trusted — that was a real gap here once, and closing it is the reason this section exists.

Sized to the role

Either a set of small problems or one or two scenario questions, generated for the role rather than pulled from a public problem set candidates have already memorised.

Folded into one score

The coding result is a pillar of the final report, weighted with the rest — not a separate number somebody has to reconcile by hand.

How it works

  1. 1

    Enable the round

    Coding is a per-interview toggle, so you run it only where it is relevant.

  2. 2

    The candidate writes and runs code

    In the browser, in the language they choose, executing in a sandboxed runtime.

  3. 3

    Submissions are scored server-side

    Against the stored test cases, and the result becomes a weighted pillar of the report.

Questions we get asked

Can candidates run their code before submitting?

Yes. They can execute against sample cases while working. Final scoring is separate and uses the server-side set.

What stops someone pasting an AI-generated answer?

Nothing stops it outright, and any vendor claiming otherwise is overselling. Anti-cheat signals record context switching and focus loss during the round, and those signals are reported rather than used to silently fail someone.

Which languages are supported?

Eleven runtimes today including Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Java, C, C++, Go, Ruby and Rust.
