How to create a test template

This article explains the process of creating a test template and loading the previously created test template.

Test templates are saved test settings that are used to create the same quickly.

To create a template, follow the next steps.

Setting up test settings

You can access the “Create Test Wizard” from the homepage:
1. Select the “Create test” quick action button
2. Navigate the “Tests” option in the application’s main menu and then select the “New test”
option.

“Create Test Wizard” is divided into eight steps.

The second step in “Create Test Wizard” is the settings. In this step, you should choose options for the test.
In this example, we will select:

  • Require answering all question
  • Enable “I don’t know” answer to avoid negative points
  • Disable going backward in test
  • Enable answer feedback
  • Show question metadata to the candidate
  • Require updating profile information
  • Allow test continuation
  • Allow test retaking (number of attempts is 3)
  • Duration type: Time to answer all questions set to 15 minutes

All the chosen settings will be saved in the newly created template on the last step of the test wizard and
can be used to set up the settings for the new test automatically.

The last step in the test creation process is the saving of the test:

You can:
1. Click the “Finish wizard” button to save your test
2. Save the test settings as a test template by clicking on the button “Save as test template.”
