You don't even need a test. Just drill down on one particular area and see how much they know.

For example, get them to explain a model they would use to represent user login. Then get them to explain how that would link to their use info. Then how they would display that on a login screen. Then how they would save that into the database. Anything to watch out for? Any security concerns?

Everything is so web based on HN. Give them a device protocol and ask them to code up the state machine for it.
