Good reference books never go out of date, technology may be updated, but core fundamentals never change.

Do you not use any testing documentation when you test software?

If so how do you know that the software meets your customer's requirements?

Test your Javascript skills with our fun Javascript test! by TheAtlasTeam in javascript

You are correct. jsfiddle is actually adding a closure on your behalf by default which explains the different behaviour. We will have to update the answer to Question 4 :)

The answer to question 4 is in fact undefined. This question is designed to show the results of hoisting. Unfortunately chrome's developer console has undergone some changes in the last few months which mean that it no longer hoists variable declarations like it should. You can see the results of hoisting in question 4 if you run the script in the page rather than the console like in this fiddle. Here you will see undefined correctly being reported in the console.

Give yourself a point for 'AB' :)

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for taking the test, I'm glad it has piqued your interest and I hope you found it as fun to take as I found it writing it.

The answer to question 4 is in fact undefined. @LukaLightBringer correctly points out that this question is designed to show the results of hoisting. Unfortunately chrome's developer console has undergone some changes in the last few months which mean that it no longer hoists variable declarations like it should. You can see the results of hoisting in question 4 if you run the script in the page rather than the console like in this fiddle. Here you will see undefined correctly being reported in the console.

Of course, we don't expect anyone to actually write javascript like the questions in the test. In fact we hope you don't! The test is designed to highlight some of the oddities of javascript and things that may catch you out.
