How should candidates prepare for the possibility of technical issues during the examination?

Familiarizing themselves with the testing software is a crucial preparation step for candidates. This understanding helps in navigating the exam environment smoothly and reduces the anxiety associated with using unfamiliar technology during the evaluation. Knowing how to access different features of the software, such as navigating between questions or using tools provided for the test, can enhance a candidate's confidence and potentially mitigate the impact of any technical issues that may arise.

In contrast to this approach, relying on memorization of questions doesn’t address the practical aspects of taking the exam and can be less effective, as exams often include variations of questions or new content. Bringing a backup device is impractical in most testing scenarios and does not ensure that the candidate is equipped to handle the specific software challenges they might encounter. Lastly, reviewing previous exams might provide useful insights, but it does not prepare candidates for the immediate technical aspects and operational use of the testing platform itself.
