I want to enter test student in the exam availability exceptions but it is not an option

I like to be able to access an exam as a test student (especially when I have limited the availability to one or 2 students), but adding the test student does not seem to be an option, even when I type in test.

Hi @tamaramcgovern 

The Test Student isn't a fully enrolled user that can be assigned, it's simply a way to view your course with limited ability to interact with activities. You will be able to view the quiz as using student view. But you won't be able to test any limited availability settings. That's because, "Once you activate Student View, the Test Student is shown at the end of the Gradebook and SpeedGrader and is automatically added to every section in your course."
