The 'WordPress Developer' skill assessment aims to evaluate the candidates' ability to develop and customize professional WordPress websites. It tests the candidates' skills in WordPress, a popular content-management system used for creating blogs, business websites, and eCommerce sites. The assessment mainly focuses on the candidates’ mastery of
WordPress, critical-thinking, problem-solving abilities, and their proficiency in designing and implementing new features and functionalities.

HTML/CSS is an essential part of this assessment, ensuring that candidates possess the skills to create visually appealing, user-friendly websites.
