Send Reminders to Test-takers

The main objective of this feature is to facilitate the client to send reminder emails to the test takers who were invited to take the test but haven’t even registered for the test. Important changes that have been done are: 

  • Introduction of “Test Email”. The user has to mandatorily send a test email before sending the actual reminders once any changes have been made in the email template. 
  • Maintaining history of when any reminder email(s) sent to any test taker. Changes are done both in the User interface and the Excel downloaded from Yet to start tab.

Now any test taker in the Yet to Start status on the results page, can be sent a reminder. The maximum limit for now is 4. That means any test taker can be sent 4 reminder emails at max with one invitation email already sent.

 

Note: Even if the reminder email is not delivered/bounced due  to the recipient test taker, it would still be counted as an attempt

Log history of reminders sent would also be available to keep track of which invited test taker has been sent how many reminder emails.

Excel getting downloaded for the Yet to Start test takers status, the date of reminder emails sent would be have addition data.

New and Improved UI/UX of our R Development Environment

We are happy to share that we have revamped the UI and UX of our R Development Environment.

The improved UI provides test-takers with larger area for writing codes and viewing the result along with the console output and plot(s).

The new UX brings along a walkthrough, highlighting the key components of the interface, such as full-screen view, editor features, and language support (IntelliSense), to assist test-takers in writing faster and more efficient code.

We hope you are as excited as we are to let test-takers experience the all-new interface of our R Development Environment!

Customisable and enhanced editor settings in our front-end coding environment

Our front-end coding environment now offers options for multiple editor types (VIM and Emacs). Test takers will also be able to toggle between code in a light or dark theme, customise their tab spaces and make use of the word-wrap functionality.

FES Editor settings

These options will enable test-takers to write, debug, and compile their codes more effectively.

Additionally, test-takers can now choose to disable/enable the functionality to auto-refresh the output of their code basis their preference.

IntelliSense status visibility in our backend coding environment

The availability of the IntelliSense or Code Auto-complete is now more distinctly visible in our backend coding environment. Test takers are now notified when IntelliSense has loaded for the language that they have selected.

Test-takers are also notified in case the network connection breaks and the system tries to re-connect.

Launch of Mobile Apps

It gives us immense contentment to share that we have launched our Android and iOS mobile apps.

With the launch of the mobile apps Mercer | Mettl is now available across all major platforms providing support for native functionalities to conduct secured and proctored assessments anywhere.

mettl-all-platforms

These apps will help us in expanding our reach to test-takers who don’t have access to computers or are always on the move. The apps will also enable our clients to ensure test security irrespective of the device used by test-takers.

 

Key features

  • Locks-down the device during an active assessment restricting access to other apps or functionalities
  • Supports the complete proctoring stack with auto/live proctoring and device screen recording
  • Limits distractions from phone calls, SMS, VoIP along with audio & visual notifications
  • Blocks screen shots and screen recordings
  • Restricts sharing, casting or mirroring of screen

Schema usability improvements on our database environment

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve usability of our simulators, we are happy to let you know that we have enabled a zoom-in and zoom-out functionality in the View Schema tab of our database environment (DBLysis).

This update will help test-takers take reference from the most complex schema images with utmost ease.

In addition to this functionality, we have also improved the database schema generated in questions for a smoother test-taking experience.

 

Support for console functions and alert popup on our frontend coding environment

We are happy to inform that the console tab in our frontend coding environment now supports the use of console functions which enables front-end developers to debug their code.

 

In addition to this update, we have solved for the usage of functions such as alert(), confirm() and prompt() without triggering browser tolerance for assessments where proctoring is enabled.

With this update, test-takers can easily use these functions and have a more seamless and comfortable test-taking experience.
