I am looking for a way to test python programmers as part of my hiring process.

I can understand python and follow the flow but have no idea how to technically challenge someone.

Can someone recommend an online test?

Thanks

Answer 2

What do specifically want to check?

Their algorithm skills?
Knowledge of specific python technologies (such as django)?
Python pit falls compered to other 3 generation language?
For the first one any interview question can be ok (like how to reverse a linked list, or sort an sorted binary tree and so on) you can find more here http://programmerinterview.com/index.php/data-structures/introduction
For the second ones it more depends on what are you looking for (web developer, server side and so on).
