Just because you test more doesn't mean your system is superior.

Why would testing improve learning? The point of testing is to determine the level of knowledge and recall in a student, it's definitely not to improve the student's ability to learn.

The point of standardized testing is not to learn more, but to see where the students stand in their respective educations.

Schools who cram in more testing for some perceived benefit are doing it wrong.
