TrackTest

TrackTest Online English Assessment Center or TrackTest is an online English language assessment tool launched in November 2012[1] that measures the English skills of non-native English speakers. The test is using the scale based on Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.[2] It wants to create a 21st-century alternative to expensive pen&paper tests provided by established companies like ETS. Services for companies and language schools include easy-to-use online management console for managing tests, analysing results and progress of their employees and students.[3] In 2014, TrackTest English Test was used by students from 173 countries and speaking 136 languages.[4]
