 INTRODUCTION

Test is based on the learned content of subject specific area and it is

directed to measure the learner’s level of attainment of the specific
objectives. We know that to measure an attribute a standard instrument is
needed. Therefore , unlike physical attribute, measurements are done by
describing the characteristics associated with such constructs in behavior.

Assessment device is an instrument used to determine both how well a

student has learned covered materials and how well they can contribute
their knowledge in future. Assessment can be accomplished through tests ,
homeworks, class work etc.Most formal assessment that are used to assign
grades and selection purposes or predictions involve test. A test is a
systematic method for measureing the student’s behavior and evaluating
that behavior with standards and norms.
