Section 2.2.1.8

Adding a Code Question

In the following scenario, the test-maker creates a Code question.

Figure 2.2.1.8.1 illustrates a partially filled Code question (see Adding a Question section for more information). The test-maker has chosen to create a Code type question.

Figure 2.2.1.8.1: Adding a Coding Question

The Question box is where the test-maker writes the question.

The Code question type has the section Script to Run.

The Language pull-down menu allows the test-maker to select what programming language is to be used for this Code question.

The Script text box is where the test-maker can write or paste the script to be used to grade test-takers’ answers.

After pressing the Submit button, the program verifies all the necessary information is written down. If it passes, the test-maker has created their question! Figure 2.2.1.8.2 illustrates what a Code question might look like in the end.
