Question Types in the Test Builder: True / False

Last updated on Jul 10, 2026

The True / False question type is used for statements that need to be assessed as true or false.

This type is useful when you need a quick staff knowledge check and the question has one clear correct answer. When a company develops staff learning and development, these statements help quickly check understanding of rules, policies and basic procedures.

When Should You Use It?

Choose this type if the question can be written as a short, unambiguous statement.

Examples:

  • "An employee may start work without induction training";

  • "A file containing personal data can be sent in an open chat";

  • "After completing a course, the test can be retaken if the settings allow it".

How Do You Set It Up?

  1. Choose the True / False type.

  2. The system creates two options: True and False.

  3. If needed, change the option text to something clearer, for example Yes and No.

  4. Mark one correct option.

  5. Click Save.

How Is It Marked?

The question is marked automatically and is included in the test percentage result.

This type must always have exactly two options, and only one option can be correct.

Nuances and Limitations

  • do not use this type for ambiguous wording;

  • avoid double negatives, as they confuse users;

  • if the statement contains several conditions, it is better to split it into several separate questions;

  • do not use this type if more than one correct option needs to be selected.

What Should You Check Before Publishing?

  • the statement is short and unambiguous;

  • there are two answer options;

  • one correct option is marked.
