Abstract
Computerized Adaptive Test (CAT) is one of the computer based test, that choose test items according to participants ability. To quickly measure participant ability in practical case, holistic problem can be used. Computerized Adaptive Test use item selection method to determine which test item will be used for the test. A test item contains problems that must solved by the participant. Holistic Problem Solving Methodology can be used to ajust the item selection method in Computer adaptive Test to create holistic problem in the test items in order to chalange the paticipant ability. Steps taken by participants can be measured so the result can show the participant ability profile about the test topic. Test time be more efficient because every aspect in the test topic have been summarized into a holistic problem.
