FastTEST Web's mission is to provide a cost-effective solution for web-based test development and delivery at a professional level, namely with full support for item response theory (IRT) and computerized adaptive testing (CAT).

FastTEST Web has a distinguished lineage dating back to the mid-1980s and the release of the MicroCAT Testing System, the world's first commercially available system for delivering tests on computers, including computerized adaptive tests (CATs). With the advent of Microsoft Windows, MicroCAT was re-engineered as the FastTEST Test Development System and the FastTEST Professional Testing System. FastTEST remains the premier item banking system where the requirement of security necessitates a limitation to a single computer or network. In contrast, FastTEST Web merges the geographical flexibility of web-based systems with psychometrically advanced test development.
