title: Coding Test - allow use of web?
body: <p>During hiring a .NET web developer I give the candidate a coding test.  </p>
  
  <p>I tend to limit the candidate to MSDN installed on the test server - I think it holds everything the candidate needs to complete the task.  </p>
  
  <p>I admit, this is not the normal case as I don't expect the candidate to do his work without use of the web.<br>
  On the other hand I don't want the candidate to google for a complete example and copy-paste it, i want to evaluate his skills.</p>
  
  <p>The question is <strong>do I need to allow free use of the web</strong> during the test?  </p>
  
  <p>If you think the whole coding test is wrong - I would like to hear alternatives you may have for me.</p>
