Strangely, I recently had to complete a cognitive test that was essentially that process. I was given a series of pages, each of which had a number of shapes and a multiple choice answer. I was told whether I chose the correct answer, then the page was flipped to the next problem. The heuristic for the correct answer was changed at intervals during the test, without any warning from the tester. I'm told I did OK.
