Abstract
The article presents theoretical and practical aspects of testing in higher educational institutions.
Theoretical background of any test is based on the concept of usefulness which is defined by reliability, construct validity, authenticity, interactiveness, impact and pacticality.
Before designing the examination test it is advisable to prepare examination documents defining the test aims, test type, test level and its components.
Practical aspects of principals designing final examination papers and task types as well as evaluation principals are discussed.
We recommend to apply a modular test for final examination of English at a higher educational institution.
