1.1. Problem Statement
The TestTool is used to solve problems with the following situations:
- to provide a quick and efficient test for the administrator with reliable
results and minimal manual adjusting
- to provide a easy and convenient environment for the students to take the
test
- to provide a secure environment with features that minimize cheating
- to provide instructors with the option of allowing students to take practice tests
- to reduce use of paper for testing
Although there are other test tools on the market that can solve these general
problems, the TestTool provides additional features to solve problems
that other tools do not address:
- to provide less work for the instructor by maximizing automatic grading
and feedback
- to provide a feature for instructors to make comments anywhere on a
student's completed test electronically
- to provide specialized features to integrate coding efficiently into the
test environment
- to provide an option of sharing and using questions from a central database
- to provide a localized software program that is not web-based to increase reliability
