Abstract: | Computer packages that assist the test developer in writing items, generating tests, and building item banks are critically examined. There appears to be a lack of fully integrated software packages for item writing. Although there are many test generators, they do not really assist the test developer in checking the wording of items. Packages are available, however, for building quality item banks. |
