Extending Test Durations: How to Accommodate Candidates

Codejudge provides recruiters with a comprehensive platform to streamline the assessment process and evaluate candidates' technical skills effectively. One of the flexible features it offers is the ability to extend test duration.

You can extend the test duration from the ‘Tests’ dashboard or the test builder.

A) From the Tests dashboard

Step 1:  Visit the Codejudge website and log in using your company account credentials and head to ‘Tests’ dashboard.

Step 2: In Tests, click on View for the test that you want to extend the test duration.

Step 3: Click on ‘more actions’ in the test tab.

Step 4: In more actions, click on ‘Extend Duration’ and fill in the days, hours, minutes you want to extend the test by. Then, click on confirm.

Note: The ‘Extend Duration’ dialog box also displays the current duration as a helpful reference.

P.S. The extended duration will apply to candidates who start the test after the change is implemented. Candidates who began the test before the change will retain the previous duration.

B) From the Test builder

Step 1: For whichever test you want to extend the duration, click on ‘Edit’ under more actions.

Step 2: Head to the configurations tab, and update the duration in the ‘Expiry Date’ field.

Step 3: After updating the duration, click on update test.

Important Note: While a duration extension is allowed and applies for all candidates, a reduction of the test duration is not allowed if any candidate has already started the assessment.

Extending the test duration on Codejudge is a straightforward process that provides candidates with the necessary flexibility to showcase their coding skills effectively. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can seamlessly adjust the test duration and accommodate any special circumstances that may arise during the assessment process.
