Run SystemCheck to plan for capacity during your test administration setup. SystemCheck evaluates:

  • Your network to estimate testing capacity and determine the optimal number of proctor caching computers.
  • Every computer in a testing lab to verify supported operating systems, browsers, and Java versions are installed. 

Use the same URL given to you for browser-based TestNav for TestNav installable apps. On Chromebooks, iPads, and Androids, SystemCheck checks the device's operating system for testing readiness.

If you haven't already downloaded SystemCheck, see your program support page for the link to download. Then follow the instructions for each below:
 

  1. Select your program from the drop-down menu.
  2. Click Start.
  3. Click the Check Your System tab, and click Start.
    1. Passing systems display a green checkmark and All Checks Passed at the top of the screen.
    2. Failing systems display a red x next to the failing component.
  4. To print the results or save a PDF, click Print Friendly.

The Testing Capacity check assesses real-time speed and measures how many testing computers your proctor-caching machine can handle. If you are using ProctorCache, it also checks connectivity from the server to the proctor caching computer.

You can add multiple proctor caching computers or delete a proctor caching computer. The Testing Capacity check provides the data transfer speeds and an estimated number of concurrent testers that could be supported at that time. However, this result may not accurately represent the actual transfer speeds during student testing, especially if network conditions will be significantly different. The proctor caching computer must be installed and running before you can check the connection speed.

When you have multiple proctor caching computers configured for use, the results are not combined. The tool assumes that all of the ProctorCache machines will use the same Internet connection. 

  1. Click the Testing Capacity tab.
  2.  Click + Add Caching Computer, enter the details, and then click Save.
    • Display Name – appears as the computer name in the Server/Computer column
    • Host – the IP address of the ProctorCache machine
    • Port - the port on which the caching computer is running 

1. Click the Testing Capacity tab.
2. Click the computer name.
3. Edit the host name or port, and then click Save. 

1. Click the Testing Capacity tab.
2. Click the computer you want to delete.
3. Click Delete Caching Computer, and then click Continue.
