What are the cheating prevention measures for tests?

  1. Code Playback
    Xobin's Code Playback feature records every keystroke made by the candidate during a coding assessment, allowing assessors to review the entire problem-solving process from start to finish. This helps evaluate how the candidate approached and architected their solution, while also deterring any dishonest activity. Assessors can replay the code at various playback speeds for a thorough review.



  1. Randomized Questions
    Xobin's Randomized Questions feature draws from your assessment library to generate a unique set of questions for each candidate. Recruiters can pre-configure the difficulty levels to ensure a consistent and fair evaluation across all candidates.
  2. Consistency Checker
    Xobin's Consistency Checker is designed to maintain the integrity of Psychometric Assessments. It deploys internal consistency-checking questions throughout the assessment to verify a candidate's honesty and the reliability of their responses, preventing candidates from providing fabricated answers.
  3. Off-tab Tracking
    Xobin's off-tab tracking hosts assessments in a secure environment that prevents candidates from navigating away from the test tab. If a candidate attempts to switch tabs, they are immediately notified via a warning pop-up, ensuring the integrity of the assessment. Exceeding 4 warnings lead to automatic submission of the test.



  1. Webcam Proctoring
    Xobin's webcam proctoring eliminates the need for manual invigilation during remote assessments. Candidates can take tests from any location with a computer and a stable internet connection. Using a combination of monitoring software and video imaging, Xobin ensures candidates remain focused and prevents any undesirable activity during the assessment.



  1. AI proctoring
    Xobin's AI Proctoring uses advanced artificial intelligence to monitor candidates in real time during assessments. It automatically detects and flags suspicious behavior — including the presence of multiple people or unauthorized devices — reducing the need for manual review and ensuring a secure testing environment.
  2. Screen Recording
    Xobin's Screen Recording feature captures the candidate's entire screen activity throughout the assessment, providing an additional layer of oversight. It also records ambient audio through the candidate's microphone, enabling a comprehensive monitoring experience that ensures a fair and transparent evaluation process.
  3. EyeGazer
    Xobin's EyeGazer feature monitors a candidate's eye movement throughout the assessment. If a candidate looks away from their screen for an extended period, it is automatically flagged as a violation, helping ensure the candidate's full attention remains on the test at all times.
  4. Lockdown Browser
    Xobin's Lockdown Browser restricts candidates to the assessment interface for the duration of the test. It prevents access to other applications, websites, or system tools, ensuring candidates complete the assessment in a fully controlled and secure environment.
