When a test bank is made available through the Respondus Test Bank Network, is the test bank file itself stored on a Respondus server?
No. The test bank file is still stored on the publisher’s own web server. When an instructor using Respondus enters the File Code and password for the test bank, the software will make a secure connection to the Respondus Test Bank Network to determine the location of the publisher’s server where the test bank is actually stored. (In essence, the Respondus Test Bank Network is simply acting as a “portal.”) A connection is then made between the Respondus software and the publisher’s web server to transfer the test bank to the instructor’s computer. Once the download is complete, the test bank is automatically decrypted and restored to the projects folder in Respondus.
