Docker and Container Fundamentals
Assess practical containerization skills for modern application deployment.
About This Assessment
Kubernetes and container skills appear in 68% of DevOps job postings, with entry-level roles receiving 700+ applications. Organizations need to quickly identify candidates who can actually build and deploy containers versus those who only list Docker on their resume. This assessment addresses the critical screening challenge where frontend roles get flooded with unqualified applicants due to vague job descriptions.
What Candidates Will Do
Write a multi-stage Dockerfile for a Python web application with proper layer optimization
Create a docker-compose configuration for a web app with database and networking
Debug a failing container and get the application running correctly
Automated Grading
Verify Docker image builds successfully and is optimized (small size, proper layers), docker-compose brings up all services with correct networking, and broken container is fixed and application is accessible
Environment
Ubuntu 22.04 VM with Docker and Docker Compose pre-installed, sample Python/Node.js application code, and intentionally broken Dockerfile
