In one window we propose that the text in the other - you are gaining, and the system determines how many errors and typos you made. The advantage of online testing is that you do not need any assistant or additional equipment. In addition, if a particular site does not work, you can always find in search of another. And you don't need to think about the kind of complexity you need to take the test for "control work".
