Quizzes are among the most widely used resources in Web-based education due to their many benefits. However, educators need suitable authoring tools that can be used to create reusable quizzes and to enhance existing materials with them. This paper presents an online e-Learning authoring tool for creating and integrating reusable quizzes and enhancing existing learning resources with them. This paper described Test Editor, an authoring tool for building both mobile adaptable tests and web-based adaptive or classic tests. This tool facilitates the development and maintenance of different types of XML-based multiple- choice tests for using in web-based education systems and wireless devices. We have integrated Test Editor into the AHA (Adapative Hypermedia Architecture) system, but it can be used in other web-based systems as well. We have also created several test execution engines in Java language in order to be executed in different devices such as PC and mobile phones. In order to test them, to have carried out two experiments with students to determine the usefulness of adaptive tests and mobile tests.
