This was developmental research aimed at developing a test for testing students' mathematics competency as prospective secondary school mathematics teachers. The research respondents were 32 third-year students of the department of mathematics, Universitas Negeri Makassar. The test was developed through devising the test specification, writing down, reviewing, trying out, and analyzing the items of the test from both difficulty level and item discrimination. The item discrimination coefficient (c) was from -1 to 1. The analysis results were classified into three categories: accepted without revision, if 0.30 ≤ c ≤ 1, accepted with revision, if 0.10 ≤ c ≤ 0.29 and rejected if - 1 ≤ c ≤ 0.10. There were 45 multiple-choice items analyzed. The analysis results showed that 21 items were accepted without revision, 17 items were accepted with revision in terms of the language construction and the difficulty level of the items, whereas the rest were rejected. Thus, 38 of the 45 items were feasible to use. Copyright © 2020 EAI
