Live coding evidence checklist
A rehearsal card for the evidence interviewers can record while you frame, build, verify and recover during a shared-screen round.
Use this in practice
Record one practice round and score only what became visible. Correct reasoning that stayed in your head cannot enter the interview packet.
Before typing
- Name the ambiguity that changes the design.
- State the working assumption if the interviewer leaves the choice with you.
- Describe the smallest correct version you intend to build first.
While building
- Explain only decisions with a real cost: choice, reason and tradeoff.
- Name the state owner and the lifecycle that can invalidate the work.
- Say what result would disprove the current approach before running it.
When the approach breaks
- Stop repeating the same assumption.
- Reduce the problem to the smallest failing case.
- State what a hint changed and which part of the previous model was wrong.
- Finish with what works, what was verified and what remains unsafe.
