There is a whole question about how useful it is to test students. In my experience, some will understand and learn the material (which is the goal) and successfully pass the test, while others will just learn how to pass the tests.

Now it would be wonderful if we could just motivate students to understand and learn the material, without putting so much pressure by testing them all the time.
