A. The test delivery system ensures that all tests meet content and psychometric specifications. The testing package delivered to test centers contains not only test items, but also the rules for the administration of tests drawn from that collection of items. All items are classified according to their content and statistical properties before they are administered in an operational test. The testing software administers items according to the specifications to ensure that each candidate is administered a test of appropriate content coverage and difficulty.
