In the age of rapid IT development with the latest advancements in the
computer industry the use of computers as well as online technologies in the education
system has become a common phenomenon having largely replaced paper tests by
computer testing or online testing which has created a natural technological setting for the
students who are millenials and post-millenials.
Despite all the benefits of using the latest technologies in the learning process, in particular
in forming the foreign language competence with the undergraduate tourism students taken
as an example, computer testing, which has recently become popular as a means of objective
evaluation with rapid processing of results, has a number of shortcomings that can be eliminated
through proper analysis and clear understanding of the ancillary character of computer testing
applied for interim and final assessment.
