Summary/Abstract: The last years brought changes in the field of German as a Foreign Language, which became visible in the teaching and learning of the foreign language as well as in the field of testing and assessment of language competences. On the one hand, the expansion of the CEFR/CV in 2020 brought the introduction of descriptors for mediation, as well as an expansion of descriptors for other competencies. These are slowly finding their place in the new exam formats as well. On the other hand, the Corona pandemic in 2020/21 has affected the field of education and not only fundamentally, the teaching and examination mode has been switched to distance mode for a long time and minimizing the risk of infection has been considered a major concern in universities and colleges. To these factors, for the design of the examination formats must be added the specifics of each university, in our case the Medical and Pharmaceutical University "Victor Babeș" Timișoara.
