The test mode describes the purpose of a test or test question. When adding questions to a test, a targeted search can be carried out with a specific learning test mode. The test mode saved in each test file includes a reference points indicating which questions should be selected.

Average Processing Time (Seconds)

The completion for test questions are added together and equate to the total completion times for the test containing these test questions. If “No time limit” is selected here, no time will be planned in for the question when adding up. This option should only be selected if, in principle, no completion time controls will be used in tests. When the test is configured to use the timer per test, this value will be used as a countdown on the question itself.
When using the question times to compute an overall test times, the value in seconds must not represent a partial minute. If the total test time results in an incomplete minute, it will be rounded to the nearest full minute.
