There are numerous e-assessment systems devoted to specific domains under diverse license models. Cost, extensibility, and maintainability are relevant issues for an institution. Ease of use and inclusion into courses are educator's main concerns. For students the user experience and fast transparent feedback plus "better" tests are most important. Many exams still focus on testing memorized knowledge, instead of improving and testing skills with competence-oriented learning support and examinations, respectively. We discuss design decisions and present the resulting architecture of YAPS - Your open Assessment system for emPowering Students. YAPS has been used for very diverse lectures in logistics, computer engineering, and algorithms for exams, but also for empowering students by fast feedback during the learning period. We report on results in a basic lecture on Computer Science for Mechanical Engineers.

YAPS-您的开放式考试系统，用于激活和增强学生的能力

在不同的许可模式下，有许多专门针对特定域的电子评估系统。成本，可扩展性和可维护性是机构的相关问题。易于使用和纳入课程是教育者的主要关注点。对于学生而言，用户体验和快速透明的反馈以及“更好”的测试是最重要的。许多考试仍然专注于测试记忆的知识，而不是分别通过面向能力的学习支持和考试来提高和测试技能。我们讨论设计决策，并介绍YAPS的最终体系结构-您的开放式评估系统，旨在为学生提供动力。YAPS已用于物流，计算机工程和考试算法等非常多样化的讲座，还用于在学习期间通过快速反馈来增强学生的能力。
