Desde hace unos años, el programa LAMP (Learning Abilities Measurement Program, Programa de Medida de las Capacidades necesarias para Aprender) viene desarrollando una batería comprehensiva de capacidades de aplicación informatizada. A partir de esta experiencia, se discuten los siguientes principios: uso de una taxonomía para seleccionar pruebas, medir nuevas capacidades, mezclar pruebas intra e inter-sujetos, usar items facetados en cada prueba, adaptar las instrucciones a los entornos informáticos, controlar el balance rapidez-precisión, proporcionar feed-back, que el ordenador corrija las pruebas y cuestiones relacionadas con la valoración.
