9 In the following example, we want to compile a maths exam with nine questions from three different subject areas (analysis, geometry, and stochastic). From each subject area, one question should be randomly selected for each difficulty level (easy, medium and hard) from a set of similar questions.

Carina Enke 235.1 68 == 1. STEP: Create a new test ==
Carina Enke 225.1 69
Carina Enke 235.1 70 To create a new test, click on **//New test// **in the test resource view of the ONYX editor. Enter a title for your test. By confirming the **//Create a new test// **dialogue with **//OK// **, you will automatically switch to the edit view.

79 Tests can be subdivided into any number of sections. This allows you to differentiate content by subject or difficulty level.
Carina Enke 75.1 80
Carina Enke 235.1 81 The test structure will be displayed in the middle section of the edit view. Select the top test structure element and click the **//+ Section// **button to add a new section. Now select the newly added section structure element **//New section// **and give it a title. Repeat these steps to prepare an empty test structure.
Carina Enke 75.1 82
Carina Enke 235.1 83 The questions for each level of difficulty should be randomly chosen later. This is achieved by storing the question sets of the individual difficulty levels within sections from which questions will then be randomly selected. In order to begin, create three sub-sections per subject area, one for each difficulty level (easy, medium, hard).
Carina Enke 75.1 84
Carina Enke 235.1 85 The section structure can be hidden from the test participants. In the example maths exam, the subject area sections should be visible to the participants, while the difficulty level sections should not.

Carina Enke 235.1 88 == 3. STEP: Add questions based on their metadata description ==
Carina Enke 75.1 89
Carina Enke 235.1 90 In the left area of the edit view, you will find the **//Quick access question bank// **allowing you to search for specific questions based on metadata, which for example contain classification attributes.

Carina Enke 235.1 99 To search for specific metadata fields, use the advanced search. Click in the search field to open a context menu containing the link **//Advanced search// **. Then click on the link to open the advanced search dialogue. The advanced search contains all metadata fields categorised according to the metadata categories, which include ** //General// **, **//Lifecycle// **, **//Classification// **and **//Technical// **. The relevant metadata for the example maths exam can be found in the ** //Classification // **category.

Carina Enke 235.1 114 The questions can simply be added to the test as a copy. For our example, all questions should be selected. To do this, click on **//Select all// **below the search results. If you wish to select questions individually, mark the respective checkboxes.
tleu 223.1 115
Carina Enke 235.1 116 Now add the questions from the currently selected section **//Easy// **in the subject area **//Analysis// **using the button **//Add question(s)// **. Repeat these steps for all other difficulty levels and subject areas.

Carina Enke 235.1 118 == 4. STEP: Configure shuffling ==
tleu 223.1 119
Carina Enke 235.1 120 The test participant should only be shown one item of the question set per difficulty level within a subject area. Therefore, a random question selection needs to be enabled for the sections about the difficulty level.

tleu 223.1 123
Carina Enke 235.1 124 Select a difficulty level section (easy, medium, hard) from the test structure and customise it in the **//Edit section// **area on the right. The menu tab **//Options// **allows you to configure the random question selection. Enable the option **//Shuffle// **by entering the number of questions to be selected. For the example maths exam, exactly one question should be chosen per level of difficulty.

Carina Enke 225.1 127
Carina Enke 235.1 128 This will create a different set of questions for each participant. However, the targeted selection of questions based on the classification attributes should still result in a similar exam.

Carina Enke 235.1 130 {{info title="Note"}}
131 In the case of a generic test setup with a random question selection, it may be desirable to hide the question titles during the test. Disable the option **//Show item titles// **in the test configuration if you have included your test as course element in an OPAL course.
