Test Delivery
The Surpass test driver enables efficient and reliable test delivery on multiple digital platforms. You can take both formative and summative tests within a web browser, or even take secure tests offline running the Surpass SecureClient application in lockdown mode, which locks down candidates’ devices and prevent access to external apps and the internet.
To learn more about SecureClient, read the SecureClient documentation.

About standard browser delivery
Surpass tests can be taken in a web browser. Web delivery allows for quick and lightweight testing across any device, but does not come with the resilience or additional functionality of SecureClient and is therefore designed for learning and formative tests. It also doesn’t launch tests in a locked-down kiosk mode like the online-only secure browser mode.
The standard Surpass test driver can be launched in any web browser using HTML5. The legacy Surpass test driver can be launched in the Surpass Viewer. To learn more, read About standard browser delivery.
About secure browser delivery
Secure browser delivery refers to the internet-resilient Surpass SecureClient application and the online-only secure browser mode, in which tests can be delivered in a standard web browser in a locked-down kiosk mode. To learn more, read About secure browser delivery.
Using the Surpass test driver
Using the Surpass test driver features comprehensive documentation on all elements of the candidate experience, from opening a test and entering a keycode, to navigating items within a test and controlling media playback, to submitting the test and viewing summary feedback after submission.
