A test is said to be direct when the test actually requires the candidate to demonstrate ability in the skill being sampled. It is a performance test. In language terms, if we wanted to test whether someone could write an academic essay, we would ask him to do just that. In terms of spoken interaction, we would require candidates to participate in oral activities that replicated as closely as possible [and this is the problem] all aspects of real life language use, including time constraints, dealing with multiple interlocutors, and ambient noise. Attempts to reproduce aspects of real life within tests have led to some interesting scenarios. An indirect test measures the ability or knowledge that underlies the skill we are trying to sample in our test. !o, for e"ample, you might test someone on the #ighway $ode in order to determine whether he is a safe and law abiding driver [as is now done as part of the %& driving test]. An e"ample from language learning might be to test the learners' pronunciation ability by asking them to match words that rhymed with each other.
