By
realizing the important of test as evaluation technique, so it is a must to
conduct a good test. A test which fulfills characteristics of a good test can
be an instrument to measure the achievement of students or the success of
teaching. Generally, there five popular points that can be used as the bases of
determination that the test has fulfilled characteristics of a good test; they
are the extent of validity, reliability, objectivity, practicability, and
economic (Djiwandono, 2008; Sudijono, 2011).
Validity
refers to that the test can really measure what it is supposed to measure.
Reliability refers to the consistency of test result or score although the test
is conducted many times or at least two times. Objectivity refers to the
consistency of scoring system so the score really represent the real capability
of students. Practicability refers to the easiness in administration, the
easiness in scoring, and having clear direction. Then, economic refers to that
the test is not expensive and does not need much time.
From
the five characteristics of a good test, at least a test should be valid and
reliable. So, validity and reliability are the most important characteristics
of a good test. In the other hand, a test should be able to measure what it
purposes to measure and also can be trusted as an instrument to measure the
achievement of the students in TLP.
As
discussed above, to measure the achievement of students and the success of
teaching in TLP, it is used a test as instrument. According to Djiwandono
