Abstract

A computer-based test assembly system and method for generating an assembly of test items. The test assembly process includes creating tests in electronic form from already-existing test items and allowing access by a plurality of assembly personnel and reviewers via a network (22). Assemblers select test items on-line for in-clusion in an assembly. Electronic selection is accomplished by means of an automated item selection algorithm (66) or through a manual, but electronic series of queries. The test assembly process also includes an automated test layout feature (68) which automatically assembles a test from the selected items. When a test is assem-bled, an assembler uses an automated documentation feature (69) which generates a comprehensive documentation of the completed assembly.
