    Description

    The Ticketing Machine Test (TMT) assesses an applicant's ability to work with and check ticketing machines when issuing a ticket, to determine if the information displayed is correct. Applicants have to work with different ticketing machines and check to ensure they are issuing the correct ticket. They must understand how the ticketing machine works, how the information is presented and check the information displayed and identify how many errors, if any are showing on the machine.

    Here is an example of the type of information you might see in the TMT:
