  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ((LNEE,volume 352))

Abstract

E-testing is to perform all processes from preparing questions to marking collected answer of the questions in a completely electronic way. Now, various e-testing are done, and there are many kinds of e-testing systems. When people want to do an e-testing or order a new e-testing system, they should specify the e-testing or e-testing system. A Specification language helps to create precise and adequate specifications of e-testing and e-testing systems is demanded. QSL is a specification language for specifying various e-questionnaire and e-questionnaire systems. QSL is a hopeful candidate of the required specification language because both testing and questionnaire have similar processes. However, the current version of QSL does not take e-testing and e-testing systems into account. This paper presents an extension of QSL to deal with e-testing and e-testing systems, and shows a real application of extended QSL in case of an offline e-testing environment.
