QuizAndQuestion.com uses three main forms of question grouping. The first is the "free form" questions, which does not belong to any test or group. These questions can be assigned to any test. The second is the test group. The test is a set of questions that form the test; similar category questions can be used in different tests. The third form is the temporary "one time" test. This test is created automatically on-line and is a sub-set of randomly selected questions from a parent test or from categorized questions. The one-time quiz does not track answers and is used just to create a printable test. A query form is used for quick finding and filtering of requested tests/questions. If questions exist for a selected category the category selection will be enabled. The update filter/list button will update the query criteria and keep it in the sessions memory. You may reset the query criteria multiple times. The latest selected test based on the query criteria will be displayed after pressing the update filter/list button.

Previous tests and questions can be used to author new tests. You can use shared tests as a library. This vast test library enables you to create a test based on other parent tests and questions. Click to copy a previous test into your new test, and then modify as needed. Members who author a variety of tests can categorize the tests and questions using categories. This capability optimizes your ability to organize large amount of tests and find what you need when you need it.
