Every exam season in the lab, do these worries sound familiar?

"A network drop wipes the work"

Internet exams depend on the connection. One outage interrupts the whole room and panics candidates.

"The PC froze — answers gone"

Old lab machines freeze, power cuts happen — and a candidate's effort vanishes.

"Setup is complex, needs IT"

Legacy exam tools demand a dedicated server, network config, complex setup... teachers can't do it alone.

SmartTest Exam was built to erase all three worries.

Commitment #1

Data safety above all — better slow than a lost answer

Every answer is saved on the candidate's machine first, then synced to the server. Work survives any incident:

  • Candidate PC freezes / restarts → reopens exactly where they left off.
  • Temporary network loss → auto-reconnects, not a single answer lost.
  • Server restarts mid-exam → room state recovers automatically.
  • Network down at submission → exports an encrypted answer file to submit later — still graded normally.

Key features

Everything a lab exam needs — from loading the test to producing the score sheet.

Auto-discover server – zero config

Candidate apps find the server on the LAN automatically. Candidates just type their ID number to reach the right subject and assigned test.

Anti-cheat Kiosk

Full screen, exit locked, app-switching blocked. Violations are logged and handled: warning, caution, suspension.

Rich question types

Multiple choice, true/false, short answer, drag-and-drop, fill-in-the-blank, essay... with math formulas & images.

Auto-grading – instant results

Graded on submission, score shown on screen. Flexible scale, rounding and percentage conversion by configuration.

Subject-centric – parallel rooms

One exam, many subjects running at once, each with its own timer. Real-time dashboard filtered by Subject × Room.

Shuffle & seating

A unique test code per candidate, shuffled questions & options. Lab seating map prevents neighbors sharing a version.

Practical exams – file submission

Essay-as-upload tasks: candidates produce Word/Excel/code; files sync to the server; export the whole subject as a ZIP to grade.

Reports & score export

Score sheets, statistics, answer-behavior analysis. Print or export to Excel/PDF with a visual report designer.

Question-bank sync

Reuse your bank from SmartTest Online. Export an exam package → test offline → bring results back to the website.

Frequently asked questions

How is SmartTest Exam different from online testing?
Online testing needs the Internet and runs in a browser — great for remote exams. SmartTest Exam runs fully offline on the lab's LAN, independent of any connection, so it's safer and more stable for on-site exams.
Do I need a dedicated server or complex setup?
No. The server runs directly on the teacher's PC (8GB RAM is enough). No dedicated server or complex infrastructure. Install and go — true to "open it and you're ready."
What happens on a power cut or a frozen PC mid-exam?
Answers are saved on the candidate's machine first, then synced to the server. On reopening, the candidate lands back on their current question. If the network is down at submission, the app exports an encrypted answer file to submit later — no results lost.
How many candidates can one lab handle?
Each server handles up to about 1,000 concurrent machines. License-wise: the free tier is 20 seats, paid plans range from 50 to 300+. Larger deployments (school clusters / departments) run several servers in parallel — effectively unlimited; contact us for a suitable configuration.
I already have a question bank in SmartTest Online — can I reuse it?
Yes. Export an exam package from the website, test offline in the lab, then bring results back to the website to consolidate — reusing your entire existing bank.
Which operating systems are supported?
Windows 10/11 for both the server and the candidate app, installed once and auto-updated to new versions.
