TestGen is a test generator program that lets you view and edit testbank questions, transfer them to tests, print in a variety of formats, and prepare tests for use with the TestGen plug-in as well as widely used course management systems such as CourseCompass, MyMathLab, EconLab, FinanceWorks, Blackboard, and various versions of WebCT. TestGen's built-in random number generator makes it ideal for creating multiple versions of tests that involve math calculations and provides more possible test items than testbank questions. Powerful filter and sort functions let you easily locate and arrange questions in the order you prefer.
