English term or phrase: item-banked tests
Because Item Response Theory allows for item banking, test publishers can minimise the effects of cheating from unscrupulous candidates. With fixed form tests, candidates could print-screen their questions and share them among other candidates, giving them unfair advantages.

With item banked tests, each candidate is given a unique set of questions, increasing test security. Also, IRT allows for adaptive testing, in which a test gets more, or less difficult depending on the performance of the candidate, tailoring the test to their ability. IRT provides myriad benefits to the test publisher, the client and the candidate, and IRT based models are becoming increasingly popular within psychometrics.

neutral  Neil Ashby: Isn't that a description of a multiple-choice questionnaire? I think these are a little different.
