Create an assessment in Tests and Quizzes
The Tests & Quizzes tool allows you to create online assessments (i.e., tests, quizzes, exams, and surveys) for your students or other groups. It was designed primarily to administer tests, but you may also create assessments to gather survey information or informal course feedback. Grading for most question types is done automatically, and grades can be posted automatically to an online gradebook.
This lesson will show you how to create a simple assessment and add a single question.

Create a new assessment
Give your new assessment a title and click the Create button. The "Create using assessment builder" option (shown selected) asks you to write questions one by one, with a simple example given below. For the other methods of creating an assessment, see Create an assessment from markup text or cut and paste and Import questions into a new assessment or question pool.
Note: You cannot have more than one assessment with the same title.
