This article explains how to administer proctored tests on the YouTestMe platform, in which candidates only need to share their screens. In this configuration, candidates do not need to provide access to their camera or microphone.
Preparing proctored tests
For more information on creating a proctored test and organizing testing sessions, please refer to this article.
Note: YouTestMe will provide you with information on which proctoring configuration you should use to create this type of test.
Candidate’s perspective
When a candidate starts the test, they must go through the equipment check process:
- Depending on the browser used, candidates may be asked to allow the system to manage windows on all their displays. For more information, please visit this article.
- In the screen-sharing step of the equipment check, the candidate will be asked to share their entire screen by selecting Entire screen and then clicking Share.
- After completing this step, the candidate should click Next.
- To start the exam, the candidate will be required to share their entire screen again in the same way.
- The test will then begin, and the candidate can start answering the questions.
Proctor’s perspective
After the candidate completes the test (and even during the test), the proctor can access the candidate’s test recording.
Note: The user must be assigned as a proctor for the testing session before the candidate starts the test.
To access the candidate’s recording:
- Navigate to the Proctoring tab of the desired test.
- Click the camera icon.
The proctor will be redirected to the candidate’s recording, where they can review and rate the attempt.
