This paper demonstrates how an analysis of the Test Standards can be used to define the body of knowledge needed by teachers for the effective use of tests in classroom instruction. This knowledge domain is essential for describing a sound measurement curriculum for preservice teachers and for outlining specifications for teacher certification testing‐. Procedures are described for identifying standards relevant to teachers' classroom role functions and for describing the behavior inherent in those standards.
