Step-by-Step Guide
How to create an online test
in 60 seconds
No technical knowledge. No templates. No app downloads. Just paste your questions and get a shareable link with a live leaderboard.
Go to testlink.in and click "Get Started"
You'll be prompted to sign in with your Google account. No forms to fill. No passwords to remember. Just select your Google account and you're in.
Tip: Use the same Google account you use daily — this becomes your educator profile.
Paste your questions in the text area
Copy your MCQ questions from wherever they are — a Word document, a PDF, a notes app, even a WhatsApp message. Paste them into the large text area on the Create page.
Tip: Don't worry about formatting. TestLink AI handles numbered lists, bulleted lists, tabular formats, and even messy copy-paste from PDFs.
Click "Parse Questions" and let AI do the work
TestLink sends your text to an AI parser that identifies each question, extracts the options (A, B, C, D), and detects the correct answer. This takes about 3-5 seconds for 50 questions.
Tip: If the AI can't detect an answer for some questions, they'll be flagged with an orange indicator. Simply click the correct option to mark them.
Review, set a title, and publish
Check the parsed questions to make sure everything looks right. Give your test a descriptive title (e.g., 'NORCET Mock Test - Anatomy & Physiology'). Click "Publish Test".
Tip: The title becomes part of your test URL — keep it descriptive so students know what to expect.
Copy the link and share it
Your test link is generated instantly and auto-copied to your clipboard. Share this link on WhatsApp, Telegram, YouTube description, or anywhere your students are.
Tip: The link format is testlink.in/t/your-test-name — clean and professional.
