Résumé (en anglais)

The paper focuses on the various techniques employed in order to measure language proficiency, particularly striving to outline a typology of business English vocabulary tests and the techniques that they use. Emphasis is placed on the characteristics of vocabulary tests, as well as the way certain methods are used in such tests, precisely in the case of Business English. For exemplification purposes, the article lists all the major techniques used by the author in vocabulary tests, most of which are included in two Alexander Hollinger books also referenced in the paper. The article concludes that a wide range of tests can be designed and administered in the field of business English teaching.
