The present study was undertaken to estimate the efficacy of
communicative language testing in the backdrop of Business
ESP at a Pakistani university. To do that, we first administered a
short questionnaire to 100 teachers teaching ESP courses at
different universities in Pakistan. The questionnaire contained
both the close-ended and open-ended questions. The results of
the questionnaire gave rise to the need for developing a
communicative language test. Hence, a 75-mark communicative
language test, paying due regard to the prescribed text and
grammar items in addition to the composition and aural-oral
skills was prepared and administered to 35 business majors at a
Pakistani university after validation by a panel of experts.
Different rubrics for speaking and composition skills were
developed after review of the relevant literature. The study
makes a claim that due to the washback effect of testing, such a
test might be a motivating factor for the students
