System-on-Chip (SoC) is an integration of electronic components and billions of transistors. Defects due to the base material is caused during the manufacturing of components. To overcome these issues testing of chips is necessary but total cost increases because of increasing test time. The main issues to be considered during testing of SoC are the time taken for testing and accessibility of core. Effective test scheduling should be done to minimize testing time. In this paper, an effective test scheduling mechanism to minimize testing time is proposed. The test time reduction causes test cost reduction. The Enhanced Firefly algorithm is used in this paper to minimize test time. Enhanced Firefly algorithm gives a better result than Ant colony and Firefly algorithms in terms of test time reduction thereby reduction test cost takes place.

Formative tests and assessments have high potential in supporting learning, especially for students with special educational needs. One approach to gain assessment information on student learning is to monitor learning progress. For that, multiple repeated tests are often performed by practitioners. In order to be useful in practice, tests must meet various interdependent quality criteria. A property of tests that touches various criteria as the utility and economy is the length. A test has to be long enough to give a meaningful, reliable and comparable measure but short enough to be usable in classroom situations. An approach to evaluate and minimize the length of a computer-based test on sentence comprehension is introduced. It is shown that the test can be shortened from eight to 5 min while the estimation of the student´s abilities remains relatively stable for a random item order and a fixed item order variant. The consequences of test development of progress monitoring and the procedure for test time reduction for the different quality criteria are outlined. An approach to evaluate and minimize the length of a computer-based test by using a one parameter logistic model on a test of sentence comprehension (N = 761) is introduced. The data and the syntax is published in the OSF project https://osf.io/hnbs8/.
