How to create a test for employees

A test is built in the test builder: blocks and questions on the left, the editor for the selected question on the right. Everything is saved automatically. You can assign a test to employees only after publishing it.

What you need

• administrator rights or the Test editor mark on your employee card;
• the material you're testing knowledge of: a standard, procedure or recipe card.

Step by step

1. Create a test. In the menu, go to Work → Testing and click Create test. Enter a Name, optionally a Description (employees see it before they start) and a Category. Click Create and open — the builder opens.

2. Add questions. Click Question and choose a type. If AI is enabled, there's also an AI button — see the section below.

   

3. Split into blocks. Blocks divide a test into topics. The block menu has Name and random selection. Drag questions with the mouse, including from one block to another.

4. Configure the test. The Settings button in the builder header covers time, passing score, attempts, what the employee sees and where the test is taken.

   

5. Check it. Preview shows the test as an employee sees it; answers in preview aren't saved.

6. Publish. Click Publish. If a question isn't ready (no correct answer, an empty option), you'll see a list of issues and a Go to first question with an error button. After publishing, an Assign button appears in the header.

Question types

• Single choice — pick one correct answer.
• Multiple choice — select all correct answers.
• True / false — a statement to mark as true or false.
• Short answer — the employee types a word or phrase. You can list several accepted spellings; extra spaces, a trailing period and “ё/е” don't matter, and case matters only if Case sensitive is checked.
• Number — with a ± tolerance (0 means the exact value only).
• Ordering — put steps in order; the employee sees them shuffled.
• Matching — match pairs; the right column is shuffled.
• Open answer — free text, graded manually by a reviewer. You can set Minimum words and Grading criteria for the reviewer.

Every question has Points for question, an image, an Explanation after answer (shown in the full review) and a Critical question checkbox. For multiple choice, ordering and matching you can turn on Partial credit — otherwise it's all or nothing.

Random selection from a block

In the block settings, turn on Random selection from block and set how many questions to Serve from the block. Each employee gets their own subset — handy for a question bank when a whole shift takes the test on the same day.

Questions with AI

The AI button (or Generate with AI) opens the Questions with AI window:

1. Paste the material. In the Topic or material text field, enter a topic or the full text of a standard. If you paste text, questions are based only on it.
2. Set the parameters. Count — up to 30 at a time, Difficulty (Easy, Medium, Hard) and Question types: single and multiple choice, true/false, short answer, ordering, matching.
3. Pick the questions. Click Generate, select the ones you want and add them to the block. Only selected questions go into the test.

AI doesn't create number or open-answer questions — add those manually. If there's no AI button, AI generation isn't enabled for your company.

Main test settings

• Time limit — minutes for the whole test; the timer runs on the server, and the test ends automatically when time is up.
• Navigation — Free (you can skip and come back) or Forward only.
• Shuffle questions and Shuffle answer options.
• Passing score as a percentage.
• Limit attempts and Pause between attempts (in hours).
• What the employee sees after the test — Show nothing, Score only, Score and mistakes or Full review.
• Where to take it — In the mobile app and/or On the website via link.
• Strict mode — see Strict mode with a camera.
• Certificate and Public link — see Results, PDF and retakes.

By default, a new test has a 70% passing score, no time or attempt limits, shuffled questions and options, and shows Score and mistakes after the test.
