I have been using online testing through Oncourse (yes, we are Oncourse and 
Sakai) for the last 6 years.  I typically put the test online for a 48 hour 
period over the weekend and have had little resistance to that.  I have been 
somewhat concerned about a move to having to be able to be sure that the person 
who is taking the test is actually the student and not a surrogate test taker, 
but in my experience that has not been a problem.

 My question to those who
>have used online testing is as follows:  when do you have the students take 
>the exam?  If we held class Monday and Wednesday and so were ready for an 
>exam, would you schedule the online exam for Friday or give them the entire 
>weekend?  Any other tips online test users have would be greatly appreciated 
>as well.

We have in fact, two kinds of morality, side by side: one which we preach, but 
do not practice, and another which we practice, but seldom preach. -Bertrand 
Russell, philosopher, mathematician, author, Nobel laureate (1872-1970)
