Unfortunately the functionality mentioned for Bodington in this tool is
incomplete / out of date. Re Online testing, without being exhaustive,
Bodington can create automatically scored true/false, multiple choice,
multiple response, and short answer questions. Questions can contain images,
video, other media files, and feedback on each answer. Instructors can
create mathematical equations. Instructors can create test banks. Anything
feasible in HTML is possible as a question. Instructors can import questions
from existing test banks. Instructors can set times for when students can
start and finish tests. Instructors can differentially weight tests and
create grading rules. Instructors can permit single / multiple attempts, and
whether correct results are shown. Instructors can override the automated
scoring for short answer papers. Instructors can create survey questions.
The system provides test analysis data for individual test items.
Which is rather more than provided :-)
I have forwarded a request to Bodington.org to see if this can be rectified.
In the meantime check out the functionality at www.bodington.org or come
to Bodington Buzz on 19th November for the full details.

When we compared Boddington and Moodle, the deciding factor was the more
extensive online testing tools in the latter.
