Three Skills. One Test . Weighted Like the Job
Full-stack means the whole surface: application code, the database underneath, and the architecture holding it together. Test all three in one 90-minute sitting.

The Full-Stack Claim Deserves a Full-Stack Test
'Full-stack' is the most elastic label in engineering. For some candidates it means genuine range; for others it means one React project and a tutorial's worth of SQL. Testing only one layer lets the gaps hide: the strong frontend candidate who's never designed a schema, the backend veteran who hasn't touched async UI patterns. If the role spans layers, the screen should too.
QuikQ's Full-Stack Engineer template runs three weighted sections in one sitting: coding, SQL, and system design scenarios. Weights reflect that a design misjudgment usually costs more than a syntax slip, and per-section scores show each candidate's shape rather than a blended average that hides it. Ninety minutes, anti-cheat protected, graded on submission.
One Sitting, Full Coverage
Coding Section
Language and debugging questions with JavaScript emphasis, independently timed.
SQL Section
Queries, joins, and data modelling, because the database is half of every feature.
System Design Scenarios
Architecture judgment questions, weighted heaviest because the mistakes cost most.
Weighted Scoring
Sections carry different weights out of the box, tuned for what senior work demands. Adjust freely.
Candidate Shape, Not Just Score
Per-section results show frontend-leaning, backend-leaning, or genuinely balanced.
Protected Throughout
Anti-cheat runs across all three sections with violations logged per attempt.

Who Runs the Full-Stack Test
Startup Generalist Hiring
Small teams need range. The three-section shape shows exactly how much range exists.
Agency Bench Building
Agencies verify claimed versatility before staffing developers across client stacks.
Seniority Calibration
The weighted design section separates senior judgment from years-of-experience claims.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the full-stack developer test cover?+
Three sections: coding with a JavaScript emphasis, SQL and data modelling, and system design scenarios. Each is separately timed and scored, with system design weighted heaviest by default.
Why weighted sections?+
Because errors cost differently by layer. A schema or architecture misjudgment outlasts any syntax mistake, so the default weights favour design judgment. You can change the weights to fit the role.
Ninety minutes feels long. Will candidates finish?+
Completion stays strong when the assessment replaces multiple earlier steps and candidates know it. If your funnel needs shorter, trim question counts per section; the structure holds at 60 minutes.
Can I adapt it to my specific stack?+
Yes. Swap the coding emphasis to Python, add framework questions with AI drafting, and edit the design scenarios toward your architecture.
Is it free?+
Yes. The template, weighted scoring, and anti-cheat are all included free.
