We run a chapter (club) at our college where we assist 500+ pre-final year students to prepare for their upcoming placements through a plethora of events such as mock interviews, aptitude tests and group discussions. It was a tedious task to prepare questions, invigilate tests, evaluate answer sheets, and give constructive feedback to students and so we decided to automate the process.
The software runs on PHP 7.2 and MySQL. The CSS framework Semantic UI was used for the design.
The Heroku platform was used for deployment.
- It is assumed you already know how to install LAMP stack. For macOS and Windows local development, I would recommend downloading [XAMPP (https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html) for a sandboxed environment.
Clone the repository to your C:\xampp\htdocs directory
