Test Cases for Contest Problems can be revealed after the contest!

I am requesting codechef to please provide test case of practice problem.
otherwise user will start moving to hackerearth,codeforce,hackerrank type of site where they provide test case of practice problem.
It is very important part of programming to know where are the mistakes.
when you know the mistakes then only you can grow/progress otherwise there is no point of solving question on codechef.

@admin i agree with this opinion at least the case at which our solution fails should be available.
And especially for practice problems. At times it become really difficult to learn as a beginner and instead of finding my own mistake i have to follow editorial’s approach or check someone’s solution.

I agree with you. Codeforces has this system, Codechef can also have it. Admin said that they are changing their whole contest hosting procedure, they might add this feature.

The question title made me think that CodeChef actual did this.

can you give me more test cases for SAMESNAK problem in Snakdown 2017?

Not allowed. The contest is STILL on going.
