What Are Pre-Flight Checks?

What pre-flight does

Opening a test brings up a pre-flight screen that confirms everything is ready before the timer starts. It shows the test title, its instructions, and who assigned it, with a checks panel alongside.

The checks

Two things are verified:

• Internet Connection: answers save as you go, so the test won't start while you're offline. Reconnect and it passes.
• Fullscreen (only when the test requires it): click Enter Fullscreen to switch modes. The test can't begin until you do.

Starting

Once the checks pass, use the start button. The test opens in fullscreen if required, and your personal countdown begins from that moment.

When access is denied

If something is wrong on the organizer's side, the screen tells you instead of letting you in:

• Test Not Available Yet: the test hasn't been published yet. Check back once your teacher makes it available.
• Access Restricted: the test is only available to certain participants in your organization. Contact your teacher or admin if you believe you should have access.
• Couldn't Find That Test: the link or code couldn't be verified against a test. Check the code or link and try again.

Each state offers ways back to your dashboard or a retry.

Special cases

• If the availability window closed before you opened the test, you'll see a notice saying it ended before you started. Contact your teacher if you think this is an error.
• If you already completed this test, you'll get a confirmation that your submission was received and results will appear once they're published. Tests with auto-release send them out automatically; the rest appear when the organizer publishes. See Publish Results for how that works.
