The electronic platform Moodle has great potential for the implementation of a comprehensive system of monitoring and evaluation of knowledge and skills of students. Test tasks meet such didactic requirements as accessibility, speed, objectivity, transparency, validity, compliance with the current pace of information flow, etc. With the help of the program-editor of interactive tasks it is possible to develop tests of different complexity and different variations: multiple choice, filling in the blanks, finding matches, compiling crossword puzzles, etc. The test tasks developed and posted by the authors on the Moodle platform for learning German as a second foreign language were successfully tested during 2019/2020, 2020/2021.
