Hello!

I have applied to work for a company and they told me that I must first do a
test about C#.
The thing is that I know C# pretty good but in the test that I'm going to do
is included C# webb.

So my question is if it's a big difference to knowing C# win forms and
knowing C# webb ?

Yes.

ASP.NET web forms is a pretty big area.

It helps if you know C#, .NET, HTML and various other web stuff.

Nobody seems to have claimed that.


Absolutely.

But Tony did not ask about running C# on a non-Windows
platform.

He said "I have applied to work for a company and they told me that I must
first do a test about C#." and then proceded to talk as if that could only
mean either "C# win forms" or "C# webb."

If his prospective employer want's something beyond knowledge of C#
programming, and he's worried about that, he should inquire.

No. He asked if those two were different. They are.

And there are plenty of other types of apps: console, WPF, ASP.NET MVC,
windows service, WCF service etc..

And I am sure that Tony knows about some of those - console is
hard to avoid.

The language itself (C#) doesn't change, of course. If the test is only
about the C# language itself it shouldn't matter. But most likely, the
test will be about /using C# in an web (ASP.NET) application/, and
that's an entirely different can of worms

Although there are some parallels between winform and webform (ASP.NET)
coding, there's a *enormous* amount of room to ask questions about
ASP.NET that you would never encounter in a "programming a C# winforms
application" test.

You'd do well to read up on ASP.NET, to improve the chances of passing
the test. ASP.NET covers a lot of space, but basic the principles are
not that hard to understand, and will get you started quickly.

Good luck,
