Development of an Android-Based Safe Exam Browser Application Integrated with Moodle Using the Rapid Application Development Method at SMAN 2 Sukawati

Abstract

The integration of digital technology in education has increased the use of online assessment systems, particularly through Learning Management Systems. However, the implementation of digital exams at SMAN 2 Sukawati still faces challenges related to academic integrity, as students can switch applications, access external resources, and capture exam content during assessments. This study aims to develop an Android-based Safe Exam Browser application integrated with Moodle to create a secure and controlled exam environment. The application utilizes a device locking mechanism that restricts access to other applications and system functions during the exam. The development process applies the Rapid Application Development method, allowing iterative design and rapid adaptation to user requirements. The system includes features such as application locking, screenshot protection, external link blocking, violation detection, and automated penalty mechanisms. Scenario-based functional testing was conducted involving students and teachers to evaluate whether each feature performed as intended. The results indicate that the developed features—including device locking, violation detection, and the penalty mechanism—successfully functioned according to the defined test scenarios. These findings suggest that the proposed system has the potential to support a more secure and controlled digital exam environment, although further evaluation involving user acceptance and comparative testing is needed to confirm its effectiveness in reducing cheating behavior.
