# Test

Tests evaluate employee knowledge with scored questions. Each question has correct and incorrect answers, and results are calculated as a final score.

**Examples:** "Competency Test",  "Disinfectants Safety", "Company Policy Quiz"

***

## When to use Tests

**Evaluate knowledge**\
Check whether employees understand work duties, company policies, safety procedures, or any other topic.

**Provide follow-up training**\
When an employee answers incorrectly, the system can automatically assign a Media Mission with training material to their personal board.

**Track results**\
View scores, identify knowledge gaps, and trigger alerts when results fall below a threshold.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Tests vs. Surveys:** Tests have correct answers and calculate a score. [Surveys](/missions/what-are-missions/survey.md) collect opinions without scoring.
{% endhint %}

## How to create a Test

Go to **Missions → In Library → Create Mission** 

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

#### Step 1 - Mission Attributes

<table><thead><tr><th width="163">Field</th><th width="161">Required</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Title</td><td>Yes</td><td>What employees see (max 36 characters)</td></tr><tr><td>Guide</td><td>No</td><td>How to do the task (max 180 characters)</td></tr><tr><td>Categories / Tags</td><td>Yes</td><td>For organizing your library. Default category and tag applied.</td></tr><tr><td>Alert</td><td>No</td><td>Warning shown before starting (e.g. "Wear gloves")</td></tr></tbody></table>
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Step 2 — Content Builder

Build your Mission content using these [question types](/missions/how-to-guides/build-a-mission.md#question-types):

* **Single select** — pick one answer from a list
* **Multi select** — pick one or more answers
* **Yes/No** or **True/False** — simple two-option choice
* **Text** — free-text response
* **Number** — numeric input (temperature, count, currency, etc.)
* **Multi Yes or No** — Yes/No for each item in a list
* **Media** — embed a training video or image
* **Person** — select an employee from a list

You can also add:

* [**Ticket** ](/missions/how-to-guides/trigger-one-ticket-for-multiple-issues.md)— trigger an alert on specific responses
* [**Dividers** ](/mobile-app/perform-a-mission.md#dividers)— organize questions into sections
* [**Photo/Video proof**](/mobile-app/perform-a-mission.md#photo-and-video-proof) — require visual evidence
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Step 3 — Add Geographic Edition

Create [localized versions](/missions/how-to-guides/build-a-mission.md#geographic-editions) of the same Mission for different regions.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

#### Step 4 - Mission Settings

See [Mission Settings](/missions/how-to-guides/configure-mission-settings.md) for all options.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Test uses the same question types as [Surveys](/missions/what-are-missions/survey.md), but with **correct answers defined** and **points per question** (1–5).

* **Points per question** — assign a weight of 1–5 to each question
* **Ticket on incorrect answer** — trigger an alert when someone answers incorrectly
* **Assign Media on incorrect answer** — automatically send training material to the employee

### Test-specific settings

<table><thead><tr><th width="276">Setting</th><th>What it does</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Show Score After Completion</td><td>Display the final score</td></tr><tr><td>Show Correct Answers</td><td>Reveal right answers after submission</td></tr><tr><td>Provide Question Feedback</td><td>Show explanations for each answer</td></tr><tr><td>Notify About Related Media</td><td>Inform employee about auto-assigned training</td></tr><tr><td>Allow to Skip Steps</td><td>Let employees skip questions</td></tr><tr><td>Time Restriction</td><td>Set a time limit</td></tr><tr><td>Success Threshold</td><td>Define the pass/fail percentage</td></tr><tr><td>Color Thresholds</td><td>Green/Orange/Red score ranges</td></tr></tbody></table>

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://documentation.taskmaverick.com/missions/what-are-missions/test.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
