Exam Creation Exam creation in CASI was designed to be easy and straightforward. Microsoft Word is used to create items with a standard template.
Word allows any graphic or OLE-compatible object to be inserted into the exam item.
Style sheets are used to ensure consistency among items in an exam and between different exams. Each test item is stored as a separate document and is also stored as an object in a Microsoft Access database. The process of creating an exam is therefore one of creating the items as Word documents, and updating the Access databases. The items themselves are usually cut from existing tests and pasted into the separate Word documents. CASI is designed to work within the existing UESP supervised testing system.
