How to Reset a Test Attempt

This article explains how to reset a test attempt for a candidate, allowing them to retake the exam if needed.

 

Begin by locating the test associated with the attempt that needs to be reset:

Locate the Test

  1. From the main menu, select Tests.
  2. Click on Manage Tests.
  3. A table displaying all available tests will appear.
  4. To quickly find the desired test, use the search bar by entering the test name or test ID.

Resetting the Candidate’s Test Attempt

  1. After selecting the desired test, navigate to the Candidates tab.
  2. Use the search bar to find the specific candidate whose test attempt you want to reset.
  3. In the Action column next to their name, click on the rounded arrow icon to reset the attempt.

Note: Hover over the icons if you’re unsure which action they represent; a tooltip will appear.

After clicking the rounded arrow icon, a pop-up window will appear.

  1. From the pop-up, select the desired session to which you want to assign the candidate. For more information on how to Assign Candidates to a Testing Session, please visit this Article 
  2. If the test is a generated test, you will also see the option to manually assign a test version by toggling the switch on or off, depending on your preference.
  3.  Click on Confirm, and the test attempt will be reset for the candidate.

Note: You can manually assign a test version if you want the candidate to retake the same version. If this option is turned off, the system will automatically generate a new version for the candidate.

Viewing Suspended Attempts

When you reset a candidate’s test attempt, their previous attempt remains stored in the system but is not shown by default. To view suspended attempts, you need to enable the Show Suspended Attempts option:

  1. Click on Filter.
  2. Check the box for Show Suspended Attempts.
  3. Click Apply.

Once enabled, both the new and suspended attempts will be visible in the table.
