• 2. On the Questions page of the Test, hover your mouse over the Question you want to validate.
• 3. In the Actions column, click on three dots and select Try question.

• A separate web page displays the Question and allows you to solve it by either compiling code, selecting from multiple choice answers, etc depending on the Question type. When you submit the solution, you can see the results.

Steps to Try a Test
