Adapting the Borg & Gall model, the researcher applied the Research & Development (R&D) procedure. The development’s product, @joe_analysis, became the answer based on need analysis. The quality of the test items in TOEFL-like placement test items were classified into validity, reliability, index difficulty, and discriminating power. The field testing was done by 18 students who had to undertake a placement test. The results showed 30 valid items in the listening section, 18 items were field tested valid in the ‘Structure & Written Expression’ section and 23 items were classified as valid in the ‘Reading Comprehension’ section. The ‘Listening Comprehension’ section items had a reliability index of 0.887 indicating ‘Very Good Reliability’ and the index of 0.999 in the section ‘Structure & Written Expression’ indicating as ‘Excellent Reliability’ and were classed as ‘Good Reliability’ with a reliability index of 0.753 in ‘Reading Comprehension’ section. Based on the index difficulty's results, the ‘Listening Comprehension’ section, the difficult category contained 28 items (56%) while the medium category contained 22 items (44%). In ‘Structure & Written Expression’, the index difficulty category had 28 medium items (70%) while the difficulty category had 22 items (30%). In the ‘Reading Comprehension’ section, the difficult category included 21 items (42%), the medium had 22 (58%) and the easy had none (0%).
