    FAQ

    Are pictures and videos possible in questions?

    You can use images virtually anywhere and in any question. Videos are also usable as well as MP3 files or almost any other file type.

    Can the text in questions be formatted?

    By integrating the Tiny MCE Editor, you can format and design your questions.

    Can different topics be examined in one exam?

    Yes, you can set whether or how you want to display the questions in the blocks, or whether all or only a part of the existing questions from the question pool is queried.

    What options are available for awarding points?

    Standard:

    The EXAMINEE receives one point if the answer was correct and zero points if the answer was wrong.

    Exactly:

    In the case of multiple-choice answers, the examinee receives a precisely calculated point rating.

    Custom:

    The author decides how many points are given or deducted for which answer option. Here you have full control over the awarding of points.

    Can I edit the question if it has already been used in an exam?

    Sure! Questions and exams exist as working and published versions. You can work on your content risk-free and only publish the exams with one click when you have completed everything.

    Can I exchange questions with partners who also use Cybertest?

    Yes, this is possible! When importing or exporting, you also have control over whether you want to keep the original reference to the manufacturer of the question. This is useful if you may get an update in quite some time. During further import, the data is updated and there is no data chaos as in other systems.

    Can I use a question I created in multiple exams?

    Yes, you can! Thanks to the modular structure of Cybertest, it is also not necessary to duplicate the question. If you make changes to the question, any checks that use the question are also updated.

    What happens if the internet goes down during the exam?

    Half as wild! Cybertest stores progress continuously. If the Internet or WIFI has a dropout, Cybertest reports this to the examinee. Upon re-entry, Cybertest will restore the questions already worked on and the exam can be continued.

    How are the questions translated into foreign languages?

    The translation can be easily done in the system. This also ensures that you really only have to translate and do not have to completely rebuild or duplicate the question again. Export and import functions are also available if you would like to have the questions translated by an external service provider.

    Does the collection of the question types follow a specific process?

    Our UX follows a strict process, which has been continuously improved over the last 25 years and is now perfectly designed for the rapid recording of questions. In addition, there are hardly any differences between the question types, which ensures fast onboarding.

    I would like to add case studies as a ZIP file to the questions. Is that possible?

    Yes! Each question can be extended with attachments. Which files you want to attach is entirely up to you.

    Does Cybertest support the import of QTI standard questions?

    Sure! We not only support the import, but can also export questions in QTI format.

    We already have an examination system in use. If we now switch to Cybertest, can we take over the questions?

    We have accompanied some migrations in the past and can use automation to take over questions from third-party systems with little effort and at the same time free them from duplicates during the import.
