Email 

Test Generator's email feature is designed for test authors who want to send email before, during or after a test.

Email settings are defined globally, but specific emails can be customized at a test level. Test authors have the option of generating any combination of pre-, test and post-test emails. 

Note: in order to send email to test takers, their TG user profile must contain a valid email address.
