Previewing a Test

Previewing your test during the design phase is essential to ensure everything works as expected. TestInvite offers a dedicated preview feature that lets you experience the test from a test-taker's perspective, helping you verify layout, navigation, time limits, and logic settings before the test is published.

Where to find it: Tests → Select a test → Preview Test (bottom left menu)

And choose between two modes:

Test mode

Simulates a real test-taking experience. No feedback is shown during the test.

Practice mode

Provides instant feedback after each page submission.

This includes:

• Correct and incorrect answers

• Feedback content configured per question

What to check during preview

Use the preview environment to validate the following:

• Time limits applied at test, section, or page level

• Navigation settings and movement restrictions between pages or sections

• Mandatory question behavior (e.g., blocking progress)

• Ordering of sections, pages, questions, and answer choices

• Randomization settings (shuffling of questions/pages)

• Tools and extras like calculator, on-screen keyboard, progress bar

Previewing allows you to catch misconfigurations before launching a live test, saving time and improving test quality.
