At current when we enable question randomization it requires that all questions (Multiple Choice, Short Answer, T/F, etc.) appear on the same page which overloads the page and forces a lot of scrolling for the candidate making for a less optimal candidate experience.
Who would most benefit from this idea? | Lab Developers or Lab Authors |
What is the problem you are trying to solve?

Thanks for taking some time to send along this suggestion! Our Product Group has reviewed this idea and will be adding it to our roadmap. Stay tuned to this thread as it moves through our scheduling and development cycle.
I have reached out to our CSM, we really need this in place for our exams. This and self service reporting are definitely our top 2 requests.
In my mind I see a "Random Group" defined which has a "generic" lab.activity() token which would select a single activity or question from within the group. This way you could add the lab.activity(generic) token to the instructions and it would display a single random activity from within the group. The lab.activity(generic) token could be added anywhere, on any page, in the instructions allowing the group to span multiple pages. Also, the activities displayed in the instructions using the lab.activity(generic) token will not be duplicated unless more tokens are specified in the instructions that there are in the group.
Is this what you are looking for or were you thinking of something else?
Thank you for submitting this idea! We will be reviewing it as part of the development process.
