Distance foreign language testing is viewed as a part of digital education as it is performed digitally; can control the levels of students' assimilation of language material and simultaneously make them revise and learn certain language phenomena in a digitised form; makes the learners use different digital devices stationary, mobile and combinations of both and realizes digitised connections with other subjects of the curriculum. The classification of testing forms, its advantages and perspectives for further development are given. The results achieved in the experimental work the aim of which was to compare the popularity of traditional and distance testing with students, the efficiency of their fulfilment of digitised and printed tasks, the results of learning achieved traditionally and with the help of technical devices are described. On the basis of many years of practicing mentioned above distance testing the author comes up to the conclusion of its efficiency and compatibility with traditional and high-technological methods of teaching foreign languages and possible successful implementation in non-linguistics universities.
