Learn how to write a test - a tool that will be useful always and everywhere!

Testing and writing tests is an invention from a long time ago. Professional scribes were tested in Ancient Babylon, mathematical skills were tested in Ancient Greece (at the Pythagorean school), — applicants for bureaucratic positions in Ancient China, and in Ancient India people were tested for game wisdom (chess). The ancestor of testology (test science, testing, and how to make test) is considered to be the Englishman, F. Galton. Developing tests and performing testing has many advantages: rigor, objectivity, breadth of applications, interdisciplinary, motivation, etc. It also has a range of applicability.

However, developing testing is a difficult task. A test’s job is to ask a question that requires an answer (via selection or design) with little time to think. Testing is a method of pedagogical measurement. A pedagogical test is a high-quality test in terms of increasing difficulties for assessing the readiness of trainees. Therefore, writing a survey or quiz is the task of professionals.

Tests are classified by direction (intelligence tests, personal tests), homogeneity (homogeneous, heterogeneous), goals (diagnosing, training, attestation), form (closed, open, for conformity, for sequence), etc. The closed form is similar to the choices we make daily, and provides a selection of the best of the offered opportunities. There are also other approaches to classifying tests.

The key property of the discipline is a complex series of competencies that form the art of testing and the foundations of testology. Test goals include interest in testing, development of the ability to compile interesting and high-quality tests, and an evaluation of the user's skills.
