OPS Test: Operational Test and Evaluation Support Tool. Volume 1 - Concepts and Capabilities

Abstract

The Institute for Information Technology Applications' Operational Test and Evaluation Support Tool (OPS TEST) is an automated testbank and on-line testing capability designed to support the testing requirements of operational Department of Defense units with training and standardization/ evaluation testing. OPS TEST on-line testing supports a variety of levels of testing from formal, highly controlled certification testing to test-taker created practice tests. Test items are stored as Microsoft Word documents and can include a wide variety of embedded graphics, pictures, and charts. In addition, test items may include associated multimedia clips that the test-taker can play as part of the test item. Feedback mechanisms to the test-taker include textual messages as well as hyperlinks to associated reference material on the Internet, intranet, or shared network file systems. Test administration functions within OPS TEST include the ability to add and maintain test items, build and maintain master and specific tests, track test results, and analyze the performance of test items. The OPS TEST software and associated documentation as well as some technical support are available from IITA to operational DoD units upon request.
