Résumé

This paper addresses how the web based Plataforma de Exámenes Valenciana de Lenguas Extranjeras (PLEVALEX) is designed and how traditional test items have been adapted to the computer-based platform. Additionally, it also justifies the types of testing tasks included in the platform. After a brief review of the needs analysis that justified the computer based platform development, the paper shows the three main sections in the test prepared through PLEVALEX: multiple choice, written composition and oral. Finally, the article includes the topics of further research and development in the research project. As a conclusion, it is suggested that PLEVALEX...
