This article aims to discuss the impacts of language testing on someone’s personal life continuance and how language teachers should compromise to this reality and bring out the positive impacts that language testing can have on language learning (positive washback).

We then try to point out the main keys to maintain and optimize the positive washback from the existence of language testing.
