I would prefer your kind of test a hundred times over the one on top here.

That said, why would they expect you to know the css color values by heart? I see no usecase for that.

It just came up in a discussion. The test was to spot mistakes in some HTML code. I marked the "gray". The guy I did it with said that that's not a mistake. At least he thinks it's not. We were musing about that for a minute and later found out that I was wrong. Nothing major. I just felt stupid about it.

I felt especially stupid because he seemed to be rather important. While everyone's e-mail address was [email protected] his was [email protected].

But he was just a nice guy and apparently I did well and got my rather high salary approved.
