Abstract :
Assessment is crucial to any learning environment. Traditional methods are via tests and examinations that hold limitations presently giving way to more effective assessment tools such as Computer Based Testing (CBT). Nonetheless, contemporary CBT implementation in Saudi Arabia suffers from several drawbacks. These and two determinant factors uncovered by our research are presented in some detail. Based on these observations, future research into the development of a specific CBT framework is recommended.
