INTRODUCTION

In this evolving world of digital learning, the Quiz Appearing Platform "Quiz Hub" is a crucial
and user-friendly solution to the process of creating and managing tests/quizzes especially in
educational institutions. Developed & coded by Bibek, this web-based application is designed
to fulfill the needs of every educator’s, institutions, and organizations who want a liable
platform for conducting quizzes and efficiently storing and analyzing results. This project is a
proof of the power of technology which can enhance the field of education.

The age-old methods of paper-based assessments and manual score calculations, are not only
time and resource-consuming but also can have errors. This project solves all these challenges.
With its automated service, it simplifies the job of creating multiple-choice question papers
and assessing the results. Even for students, the Web-Application offers a user-friendly
experience, allowing them to participate in quizzes by providing answers to each of the
questions presented. This Web-Application even allows the students to view their scores and
ranks in the test by collecting their responses.

In this document, we present an abstract that marks the essence of the project and its key
features. We would love to get feedbacks on this which would help us grow!

PROBLEM STATEMENT

In the context of a modernized education and e-learning, the process of creating,


administering, and managing quizzes / tests can be a lot time-consuming, error-prone,
complex and sometimes paid, thus often requiring the use of various tools and platforms.
Educators and institutions all around the globe need an efficient and user - friendly solution
that simplifies the process of hosting tests while ensuring accurate assessment and data
analysis. The existing options, including the widely known e-learning platforms and
standalone quiz tools, may lack the required marginal level of simplicity and flexibility.
Therefore, there is a clear and sharp need for a comprehensive " Quiz Appearing Platform"
that offers a streamlined and accessible approach to test creation, administration, and result
management, ultimately improving the assessment process for both educators and students
and facilitate innovations for the upcoming generations.

Also for a project with so many multiple files, it is really quite important to
construct a proper workflow diagram which is easier to understand for any
individual whether from a CS or a Non - CS Background, so that he/she can
understand the workflow of the Project just by looking at the diagram rather
understanding the codes as a whole.

EXPERIMENTAL SETUP
To set-up the quiz appearing platform “Quiz Hub” and make it runnable in a User’s Personal
Computer, the following steps must be fulfilled in order to run the Application, as this is a
testing version of the Application, it must be run on a local server / developmental server.

1) Installation Of Python & MySQL – In order to run the Web Application both the
software’s / programming languages i.e., The MySQL Database and Python must be installed
manually in the users PC. One can download the required software’s from their official
respective websites, (i) Python from https://www.python.org
(ii) MySQL from https://www.mysql.com
(iii) Any Web-Browser: Like Google Chrome, etc.

2) After Installing the Software’s, the user must install all the specified package of Python in
order to establish connection between the Backend & the Frontend as well as with the local
MySQL Database which is used for storing purpose in this initial stage.
(i) Press Win + R -> Type cmd & press Enter.
(ii) Type “pip install flask mysql-connector-python” & Press Enter.

3) Creation of the Database: Next we will be required to create a MySQL database for the
Question Set & Result using the following MySQL Commands after opening the MySQL
Command Line Client from the Start UP Menus of the System – “create database question;”
then “create table marks (StudentName VARCHAR(250) NOT NULL, Marks VARCHAR(250)
NOT NULL);” then the user can type the command “exit” to close the MySQL Command Line
Client.

4) Once The above Steps are performed the User will be all – set to run the Program in his/her
PC and Enjoy the Efficiency, Accuracy & Compatibility of “Quiz Hub – The Quiz Appearing
Platform”, all he will be required to do is to run the App.py through his/her integrated
terminal, once the code runs successfully in the terminal the user is hereby instructed to visit
http://127.0.0.1:5000 which is the in general local dedicated server for hosting such Web-
Application.

Output Analysis

The moment when the mentioned steps in the Experimental Setup are
performed successfully, The user will be able to run the Program at ease… all
they will be required to do is run the command “python app.py” in their
integrated terminal of the system also to note the directory of the terminal
should also be same as the directory of app.py, the output will be as follow -

This is the Starting of the Program, where basically a development server(a


local server) is getting created where the Web-Application will currently be
working on. Once an individual gets the above output in his/her system he/she
are hereby instructed to open their respective web-browser and search the
following “http://127.0.0.1:5000” typing which the individual will be redirected
to the web-application running in the local server.

Output Analysis 1

19
Above is the Landing page of the Web-Application “QuizHub” where the user
will be asked to select “Yes” or “No” from a dropdown menu by selecting which
he/she will be redirected further-

If the user selects “Yes” that will indicate that the user wants to set a
Question Set of his/her own before initiating the Quiz, therefore will be
redirected to “set_question_paper.html” where he/she will be able to store
his/her question set at ease which will afterwards be store in the local
database once submitted furthermore he/she will also be redirected to
“test.html” for initiating the quiz

If the user select “No” that will indicate that the user wants to proceed with
the existing Question set which was previously stored in the local database,
therefore by selecting “No” he/she will directly be redirected to “test.html”
which is basically the Quiz initiating template and thus will be able to host
the Quiz for his/her students without any hustle.

Output Analysis 2

20
→ “set_question_paper.html”

Output Analysis 3

21
→”test.html”

Once the Quiz is successfully initiated the user will be redirected to


“result.html” which is basically the template that is used for result publication
purpose where the evaluated scores of each users were being stored
simultaneously.

Output Analysis 4

22
→”result.html”

In the “result.html” there are two buttons named “Next” & “End Test” each of
which has different roles, as in the “Next” button is used to take the Quiz of the
next user by redirecting the next user to the “test.html” template where he/she
will be able to give the test just like his/her previous user, when he/she
completes the test he/she will again be redirected to “result.html” where he/she
will be able to view his/her result just like the previous user, hence like this the
loop will continue every time the “Next” button will be clicked whereas the “End
Test” button when clicked will redirect the user to the “thanks.html” page which
is basically the end of the conduct.
