This paper presents an environment which generates tests automatically. It is designed for assistance in the software engineering education and is part of the Virtual Education Space. The environment has two functionalities – generation and assessment of different types of test questions. In the paper, the architecture of the environment is described in detail. The test generation is supported by specialized ontologies, which are served by two intelligent agents known as Questioner Operative and Assessment Operative.
