People wont scream out answers during tests. Tests is the best way to ensure kids gets to sit and think about problems. Homework doesn't do that at all for many kids. I strongly believe that tests are an underutilized way to teach. Many seems to believe that you can't learn anything during tests, that they are only there to evaluate kids. However actually sitting and thinking about stuff is really important and tests helps with that.
