Set Up Java and Enable Pop-Ups for TestNav
Browser-based TestNav opens each secure test as a pop-up window. To prevent students from accessing other programs during secure testing, TestNav uses a Java applet within the browser to display the test window in full screen. See the browser-specific sections below for enabling pop-ups and configuring Java for each.
You do not need Java installed when you use TestNav installable apps, as TestNav apps are NOT browser-based.
Install and Enable Java
Regardless of your browser choice, you must install and configure java on each testing computer to use TestNav. Download the latest supported version of Java, and follow the installation instructions.
Allow TestNav Java Applet to Run
The first time you launch TestNav and TestNav SystemCheck, you must permit the TestNav Java applet to run. All browsers require this action to successfully run TestNav SystemCheck and to launch TestNav.
Users that do not accept the security certificates will see an error message. These users must close the browser entirely and complete the update before they can use TestNav and SystemCheck.
