Items API Events

Fires when the assessment's max_time has elapsed. The max_time is a configurable time limit.

You would want to be notified about this event firing, so that you can take some action, such as communicating with the learner that their time is up, for example. The next event that follows would be test:submit if the assessment has been configured with a "hard" limit_type.

Examples

itemsApp.on('time:end', function () {
    console.log('This code executes when the max time for the assessment has elapsed.');
});

Caveats

This event will only fire when the max_time initialization option is configured.
