Covid-19 is achieving an essential move-away from study hall just educating to on the web. Also, for what it's worth with every single such move, there are progress torments that must be managed cautiously as opposed to being permitted to explode and slow down change. One such developing concern is web based testing. While Delhi University is as yet battling with online assessments—the educators' affiliation and the understudies' association have both challenged online–open-book testing—the Delhi Technological University (DTU) has directed delegated online assessment during the lockdown.

Understudies at DTU were sent various decision questions (MCQs) and needed to keep their webcams on for the length of the test.

Rather than disposing of the online framework, colleges would improve to improve online frameworks by taking a shot at the impediments. One approach to this is to follow the GRE model. Not long ago, it was reported that individuals could take GRE and TOEFL at home. GRE drew in the administrations of an assessment fire up called ProctorU to direct its assessments all the more safely, with the utilization of man-made reasoning to screen applicants. Not exclusively will such a framework improve cooperation, however will likewise permit understudies from remote corners of the nation to take the test. Online has been picking up footing.
