Abstract	The document is a handbook, designed to assist directors, teachers, and counselors in adult basic education (ABE) and high school equivalency programs to plan an overall testing program by offering how-to-do-it ideas in layman terms. It was developed by a group of experienced ABE practitioners to improve testing efforts in adult education programs in New Jersey. Part One, "Testing," offers three areas of basic information: (1) improving educational programs through the use of standardized tests; (2) designing an effective testing program; and (3) testing English as a Second Language (ESL) students. Part Two, "Test Reviews," provides a condensation of pertinent information and suggests specific tests for identifiable purposes. Twenty specific tests of four types are reviewed: sceeening, achievement, diagnostic, and ESL. The test review format is intended to provide a structure for examining and evaluating tests which may be published in the future. The narrative section of the book was also constructed to be of value in the future, with the expectation that testing may be constantly changing as better instruments are developed. (Author/AJ)
