Assessment

An assessment is a special type of survey where points are awarded for each question. The total score is automatically calculated and stored in a topic. Assessments can be used during employee recruitment or to assess the knowledge of employees in an organization with respect to procedures and regulations.

Submit assessment

Assesments are run in the same way as survey. The example below shows a quiz defined in form 'Trivia'. Open a web browser to http://app.mydomain.com/survey/trivia

The possible answers to the questions are defined by a vertical list of items. Each item has a unique key, a value and a label to display. The value defines the number of points awarded for the answer. When the Submit button is pressed the maximum number of points is stored in the variable form.maxScore and the total of point from the selected answers in form.score.
