See how proctoring features works
Ensure assessment integrity with advanced AI-powered proctoring. Monitor behavior, detect violations, and maintain fairness at scale.
Capabilities.
Twelve layers of integrity, on by default
Session recording and webcam snapshots
Our platform records the candidate's entire test session, including real-time webcam snapshots at intervals. This creates a verifiable audit trail that helps confirm identity, detect impersonation, and provide visual context for any flagged behavior.
- Build trust in your hiring decisions
- Great for validating remote test-taking integrity
- Helps resolve disputes or candidate challenges
Location access & IP address tracking
With IP and geolocation tracking, you can verify that assessments are taken from authorized locations. This helps prevent proxy test-taking and outsourced assessments.
- Identify suspicious access or geographic mismatches
- Block unauthorized access or VPN masking
- Adds a powerful layer of authentication
Copy/paste blocking & screen switch detection
Our system disables copy-paste functionality and tracks any attempt to switch tabs or windows during the test. You can set tolerance limits and automatically terminate sessions if violations occur.
- Enforces strict exam-like discipline
- Prevents external answer sourcing
- Keeps candidates focused on the test
Question randomization
Testlify automatically randomizes questions and answers to reduce the risk of answer sharing or memorization. You can even pull from question pools to create thousands of unique combinations.
- Makes cheating nearly impossible
- Encourages individual performance
- Improves fairness across the board
AI assistance detection
Our AI monitors test behavior and analyzes answers for signs of ChatGPT, code generators, or AI writing tools. You get notified when we suspect AI-assisted responses.
- Protect the credibility of technical tests
- Stay ahead of modern cheating trends
- Red-flag potentially fabricated work
Snapshot proctoring
Enable interval-based webcam snapshots to see the candidate's environment at multiple points. It's a lightweight but effective way to catch unauthorized behavior.
- Easy to set up
- Reduces the need for full live proctoring
- Adds accountability for the entire session
Full-screen & forced full-screen mode
By enforcing full-screen mode, candidates are locked into the assessment interface. Exiting or minimizing the window can trigger warnings or auto-termination.
- Minimizes distractions and side-searching
- Increases engagement and integrity
- Useful for all test types
Mouse-out & tab proctoring
Monitor how long a candidate's mouse is outside the test area or how often they switch tabs. Set tolerance levels and auto-terminate based on severity.
- Perfect for high-stakes roles or tests
- Detects focus loss and suspicious actions
- Customize thresholds based on your risk tolerance
Honesty agreements & private invites
Require candidates to agree to a customized honesty declaration before starting the test. Combine that with private invites to limit access and boost compliance.
- Creates a sense of responsibility
- Prevents test link sharing
- Adds professionalism and control
Question-level activity logs
See how long each candidate spent on every question, if they switched tabs during specific answers, and whether their behavior aligned with expectations.
- Enables data-driven decisions beyond just scores
- Spot inconsistencies in performance
- Identify rushed or skipped questions
Advanced AI identity verification
Using facial recognition and AI image analysis, we match the candidate's live camera feed against their submitted ID or profile image for real-time identity verification.
- Fully automated for scale and speed
- Stops impersonation and ghost test-taking
- Ideal for remote hiring and contractor screening
Make screen sharing mandatory
Require candidates to share their screen for the entire duration of the test. Monitor all activity and catch cheating attempts instantly.
- Simple to enable, hard to cheat
- Works well for whiteboard interviews and coding tasks
- Adds transparency to technical skill validation
