Proper verb to use with “test”

Assume that somebody has created a test/quiz like this one.

Has he developed the test? put it together? wrote it? something else?

What verb would you use?

Answer

To me, “wrote the test” implies he took the test, not that he developed or otherwise created the test. “Compiled” implies he put the test together from previously existing questions. I’d take “designed” to refer to the test format or typeface or possibly intent, not necessarily the content. “Prepared” implies involvement with content, but not necessarily creation: he might have revised a test from last year. So if you mean that he created a new test specifically for a particular use, then “developed” seems closest.
