How can I set up a new test?

What is a section of a test?

A section of a test contains a group of fields/questions known as elements.

What are elements of a test?

The elements of a test are all the fields/questions you will complete when collecting data. There are a number of different element types we can configure for you and we can make these fields either required or not required. You will not be able to submit data unless required fields are completed.

Types of elements:

• Date - This will be present in all tests and will pre-populate to the current data to help you identify when data was collected. We can allow past and future dates to be submitted when collecting data.
• Number - Standard number field. A defined number of decimal places and range for min and max values can be configured.
• Select - Ability to select one entry or multiple from a list.
• Range - Ability to select between a range of grouped values.
• Time - HH:MM:SS or HH:MM AM/PM
• Timer - HH:MM:SS
• String - Used for text fields.
• Calculation - This field will not show when submitting data but once you view results it will populate. The calculation can only be based upon other elements within the test. 

Example of Data Capture/Test Request:

If you have a CSV file of any historical data simply send this through and we can create the test cased on that information. For any new test please see below as an example of how to request this.
