proctored exam

Monitored assessment session

A proctored exam is a test administered under supervision to prevent cheating.

The proctor monitors test-takers, verifies identities, and enforces rules.

Online proctored exams use webcams and software to detect suspicious behavior: The certification requires a proctored exam.

Contrast with take-home or open-book tests where no one watches.
