You can easily transfer graded test results from a WebTest into MicroGrade using the export and import features that are available. After you have administered a WebTest to your students, you can use options available in WebTest to export a text file that will contain student result data.

NOTE: Refer to the MicroTest Pro User’s Guide for more information about creating WebTests and using WebTest on the Internet.

To export information from WebTest:

1. Launch your web browser and access your WebTest Test Administration Home Page using the appropriate Access Code and Password.
2. From the Test Administration Home Page, choose Results & Scoring from the Test Navigation Bar.
3. From the Administrative Options pull-down menu, choose Export MicroGrade Data.
4. WebTest will prompt you through a series of dialog boxes that will direct you to save your export file to disk.
5. When WebTest displays the Save As dialog, you will need to rename the export file with a .txt extension. For example, the Save As dialog might show “webtest.exe” as the export file name. You might choose to enter “testdata.txt” or “results.txt” to rename the export file.
   IMPORTANT: The file name that precedes the “.txt” file extension cannot exceed eight characters. You must always include “.txt” at the end of the new file name you create.
6. After you enter a new export file name, select a location for the export file. You should save your results data file in the directory that contains your MicroGrade software and class files.
7. When the file download is complete, exit WebTest, open the MicroGrade program and open the appropriate class file.
8. Follow steps 3-6 listed under Preparing your Student Scores Import File to import WebTest results to MicroGrade.

NOTE: If you experience difficulties during the import process, you might want to check the format of your results file. The file format should match the specifications described in Importing Student Scores .
