Abstract:
To provide qualified test or test items it is very important to analyze the pilot testing results and evaluate the test quality features. Typically the test analyzing process is based on the special test theories, for example, Classical Test Theory (CТТ) and mathematical Item Response Theory (IRT) [1] are most widely used. Commonly available test theories have complex mathematical – statistical apparatus that makes their usage impractical for other specialists. The way out of the situation is to create a system that will evaluate the quality of the test. There are many such software packages mainly in English, but for the Armenian market there is not a similar system with Armenian language user interface. To develop such a system a research in the field of the similar systems has been carried out [2] and the advantages and disadvantages have been found out. In this paper the description of the new developed system of the tests quality analysis that has a number of advantages over other similar systems is provided.
