As an alternative to the Quiz Designer, you can create a complete quiz using records in the Assessment application.
All the elements of a quiz, the categories, questions, and answers, are stored in tables used by the assessment engine and are displayed in quiz views of these tables. Users creating quizzes in the Assessment application must have the assessment_admin role.
Create the questions for the quiz.
Create the answers for the questions.
Distribute the quizzes to recipients.
Note: The recommended method of creating and editing quizzes is to use the quiz designer, which provides a single, intuitive interface for creating and editing quizzes quickly. If you determine that you need to add specific features to your quiz not offered through the quiz designer, you can do so by using some of the specific procedures described here.
A category represents a theme for evaluating a specific element of the quiz topic and contains questions pertaining to that theme.
Category users are the recipients of the questions for each category.
A category can have multiple questions associated with it.
Questions with Choice or Likert Scale data types must have defined answer options, called metric definitions.
When you finish configuring the answers for the quiz questions, you are ready to distribute the quiz.
