Yes. Provided you’re using top-notch software, online assessments can be equipped with several anti-cheating measures. For example, you can enable proctoring to monitor assessment takers via screen sharing and their webcam.

You can also prevent cheating in other effective ways, such as randomizing the order of questions & answer options, preventing tab & browser switching, adding time limits, and using question pooling to present different questions to different test takers.

Yes. Your online assessment can detect changing tabs if you enable “proctoring” under security settings. By enabling this setting, you can ask the assessment taker to share their screen before they start the assessment. Once they submit the assessment, you can check for tab switching by examining screenshots and the screen capture video available in the proctoring log in the assessment report.

Check out this help page to learn more about online proctoring.

You can also prevent tab switching by enabling the “Disable tab switching” setting under “Browser Security”. Enabling this setting starts a countdown timer whenever the assessment taker moves away from the assessment tab. If they don’t return within a few seconds to stop the timer (you can decide how many), the assessment gets auto-submitted.

Yes. Online assessment software can capture a test taker’s computer screen if you enable “proctoring” under security settings. Enabling this setting asks the assessment taker to share their screen when they start the assessment. Once they submit the assessment, the test admin can examine screenshots and the screen video recording in the proctoring log in the assessment report.

This way, you can detect suspicious activities, such as tab switching and screen sharing with any other platform.
