The most relevant projects of the commission during its twenty-five years of existence are reviewed, describing the work carried out: a) to understand the opinions and attitudes of psychologists towards the tests, b) to evaluate the quality of the tests published in Spain, and c) to develop standards, guidelines, and ethical and deontological codes to improve testing practices. The commission's other activities of a formative nature are also highlighted, as well as its relationships with other international organizations with similar purposes. Finally, several refiections on the future challenges of the Test Commission are shared, emphasizing the key role new technologies will have in psychological assessment.
