About this tutorial #
Build a Mock Test from approved Question Bank questions, set timing, attempts and result release, create fixed and random-draw sections, and publish an edition. Editing a published test’s details keeps it live.
What you will learn #
- The Mock Tests list, statuses, and who can publish (owners and administrators by default)
- Institute marking defaults (+4 / −1 / 0) and per-section overrides
- Creating a Mock Test: stream, title, summary, syllabus categories, access and batch audience
- Test settings: overall timer, attempts per student and the three result-release options
- Sections: all mapped questions vs a random draw per attempt, shuffled answer choices
- Mapping approved questions with filters and the rule-based Auto-map helper
- Publishing an edition — the paper and marks are frozen for attempts already started
- Saving a published test’s details keeps it published
- What students see before they start
