Blackboard eases the task of creating tests with the upload questions option.

This test generator will produce a properly formatted document you can use to generate your next test.

You can use any word processing software (ie. Microsoft Word) to create your test. The test generator will recognize lines beginning with numbers as individual questions and any row following as an associated answer. Rows in your document which begin with anything other than an alphanumeric character will be ignored. It is recommended that you utilize the numbering function in your word processor to help produce an organized document. Once you have created your test, simply copy and paste the document into the test generate and click "Generate". For details on the available question types, please see below.
