That’s why we are thrilled to announce the official launch of our Standalone English Speaking Test!

Introducing the New Tracktest Desktop App: A More Secure Way to Deliver English Assessments

Summer is a great time to recharge—but also to try something new. We're excited to announce the launch of a brand-new way to deliver Tracktest English assessments for test administrators: the Tracktest Desktop Application, now available for both Windows and Mac.

Currently in beta, this new app offers a more controlled and secure testing environment, especially useful for institutions and remote proctoring scenarios. If you’re already using Tracktest, you can try it completely free with a valid license, and we’re here to help you every step of the way during setup and testing.

What is the Tracktest Desktop App?

Instead of running tests in a browser, the new Desktop App allows candidates to take their English assessments in a dedicated, pre-installed application. Once a test is launched, the candidate is redirected from their browser to the secure desktop environment, which prevents interference from other apps or unauthorised activity.

New design of PDF reports

 This week we launched our newly designed PDF test reports now available for download directly from the results page. The PDF test report provides additional details and feedback on the test-taker's performance, such as net time spent, percentage scores for all test sections, and grammar categories that should be improved.

For the Complete test, comments from our raters on oral and writing performance are added to the second and third pages of the Test report. 

Test timer in Core tests and Writing tests

The test timer is an essential feature for both Core and Writing tests in specific settings. Throughout most of the test duration, it is conveniently displayed below the header, allowing test-takers to easily check the remaining time without being distracted from answering questions.

Admin: How to save custom texts in invitation e-mails

During the invitation process, you can customize the default invitation text to include your important information.

The only restriction is that a button and a unique user link for starting the test will always appear below your text.

If you modify the email text, you will be prompted after sending the invitations to save it for future use.

If you choose to save it, this custom text will become the default for your next invitations until you decide to change it again.

Speaking test- timer for preparing the answer

The Tracktest Speaking exam features eight general conversational questions that you should be able to answer with minimal preparation.

You'll receive the question and have 30 seconds to prepare your response. 

Once you're ready, you can either click "Start Recording" or wait for the recording to begin automatically after 30 seconds.

The required duration of the answers varies from 15 seconds to 1 minute.
We recommend you use all the allocated time for your answer.

When you upload your answer, you will automatically get the next question.
