Abstract

Digital transformation in education demands more efficient, secure, and integrated evaluation systems. However, the implementation of online examinations at Universitas Singaperbangsa Karawang (UNSIKA) still relies on simple platforms such as Google Forms, which possess limitations in supervision, security, and data management. This study aimed to design and implement a web-based online examination system using the Laravel framework and a MySQL database, applying the Agile Development methodology to address these issues. The main contribution of this research is the provision of an adaptive and integrated examination system development model that specifically addresses institutional needs through features such as user management (administrators, lecturers, and students), question bank management, exam scheduling, timer and auto-save functionalities, as well as automated scoring and reporting. The Agile method was applied through iterative sprint cycles, starting from identifying user requirements for a product backlog, system design using UML and ERD, feature development, to testing and evaluation. Black-box testing results demonstrated that all system functions operated according to the functional requirements. Furthermore, user acceptance testing (UAT) involving 30 respondents (10 administrators, 10 lecturers, and 10 students) using a 5-point Likert scale yielded an average score of 4.5, indicating a very high level of user acceptance and usability. Thus, the developed system is proven to provide a more effective, efficient, and secure learning evaluation solution compared to the previously utilized platform.
