To use Respondus Monitor with a WebTest, sign into your Hawkes course as an instructor. Navigate to the Settings for a WebTest and select "Additional Settings." Finally, select the options to require LockDown Browser and Respondus Monitor.

Note: If the Respondus Monitor setting doesn't appear in the list, it means your Hawkes Admin hasn’t yet set up the integration (explained in the next section).
