By enabling this option, the users cannot cut, copy, save, or print anything from the screen during the test-taking process. Also, the web browser will be in full-screen mode, and if the users try to minimize it, the test attempt will be terminated. It disables candidates from switching screens and tabs, right-clicking, or making screenshots.

When you create this session, you will see the link that will appear. You can place it on your website or send it by email. That link provides direct access to the test.

Pulling reports #

The reporting module provides over 40 types of predefined reports on users and tests and an indefinite number of custom-tailored reports generated using our Report Builder and advanced search options.

In the Report builder tab, you can:

  1. Load the report columns’ settings from a saved report template.
  2. Create a new custom report by checking the options from the list. Each selected option will be featured as a column in the report table.

Advanced search #

The advanced search allows you to build structured queries. The simple filter displays the results according to the chosen column, criteria, and value. The group filter represents more filters’ conjunction (AND) or disjunction (OR). Negation can be applied to any filter.
