This article explains the steps to preview a test on YouTestMe Get Certified.
Before assigning the test to candidates, it is recommended to preview it to ensure it is created correctly. There are two methods for previewing the test:
- Using the preview option provides a comprehensive view of the entire test-taking process before creating the session and assigning it to candidates.
- Assigning the test to your account – You can assign the test you create to your account once you start a testing session, enabling you to take it and experience the student perspective firsthand.
Note: If you need to change anything in the already published test, create a copy of that test and make the desired changes.
Using the Preview option
To preview the created test, follow the steps below:
- Select Tests > Manage tests.
- Navigate to the test you previously created, and go to Settings, and select the Basic Information tab.
