It will change, as most devs will naturally lose some of their ability to code manually right (I know I did, I can still fully read anything in many languages, but I know if you put me in a blank sheet right now, I might need a few minutes to recall), which mean a coding test might not be appropriate at that point. I believe we might have tests that are more about testing your "agentic skill" more than anything else.
