  There are many elicitation techniques that can be used when writing a test. Below are some widely used types with some guidance on their strengths and weaknesses. Using the right kind of test at the right time can be enormously important in giving us a clear understanding of pupils' abilities, but a teacher must also be aware of the limitations of each of these task or question types so that he use each one appropriately.
  A multiple choice test is in choosing the correct item out of several options. For example:
