ExamView Test Generator 22
Test Builder Basics
If you want ExamView Test Generator to choose questions randomly from one or more question banks, choose the QuickTest
Wizard command to create a new test. Then, follow the step-by-step instructions to (1) enter a test title, (2) choose the
question bank(s) from which to select questions, and (3) identify how many questions you want on the test. The QuickTest
Wizard automatically creates a new test and displays it on the screen. You can print the test as is, remove questions, add new
questions, or edit any question.
If you want to create a new test from scratch, select the option to create a new test from scratch. Enter a test title. You may
then add questions to the test by using one or more of the following question selection options: Randomly, From a List, While
Viewing, By Standard, By Criteria, or All Questions.
After you create a test, you can customize the appearance of the test by changing the number of columns, allowing for mixed
question types, changing the order of the questions, editing test instructions, specifying the font and style for selected test
elements, and choosing whether to leave space for students to write their answers directly on the test. The changes you make
will not change the original question bank; your changes are only applied to the copy of the questions on the test you just
created.
When you have finished creating your test, you can print it and/or save it. To print a test, you may select how many copies of
the test you want, whether you want all the copies to be the same, whether you want to scramble the questions and the
multiple choice options, and whether you want to calculate new values for dynamic questions. If you scramble the questions, a
custom answer sheet is printed for each variation of the test.
