§ The result
Testlify leads Alooba on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Testlify scores 45 and Alooba 38 under rubric v1.0 — a 7-point gap inside the Assessment cohort. Alooba is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: Testlify takes 6, the remaining criterion is level, and the nearest of those 6 is Customer Documentation, Alooba 58 to Testlify 60. Even Article 11 Technical Documentation, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Alooba 40, Testlify 52, 20% weight), is only 34% of the weighted advantage Testlify builds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -7.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -7 beside that -7.0.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
