Bottom left corner. It's obviously not visible enough :)

I just can't see it. Is it in the demo test?

My bottom left corner is empty. Except when I click "verify" it shows message whether the tests passed or failed.

But I don't see the tests themselves, nor did I notice a way of writing my own. I've tried it in Firefox, IE 8 and latest dev Chrome.

So, is it possible to write my own tests when I'm taking the test, or only when I'm creating a new one?

Sorry, some bug on our end - it should be there. We are fixing it right now. In the meantim - if you sign up for a trial account [http://codility.com/accounts/codility-register/] it works fine there (a blue "add a test case" button in the bottom left).

thanks. another smaller point i just remembered - i was a bit surprised to see that the evaluator could see my submissions to the "validate" function. given that you do say they won't influence the score i assumed that they would be discarded.

i can see there are several reasons why this is useful to the evaluator, and i can also see that you're getting close to saturating the user with instructions, but in a perfect world it would be good to have "full disclosure" (i guess you do, in that anyone can run the example....)

Good point, thanks for the feedback.

Great :-). I feared I was too stupid to see it.

Anyway, I like it a lot. It sure beats writing tests in front of a blackboard.
