The debate on language assessment ethics in recent years points to the increasing awareness among professionals about the need for ethical behavior in language assessment. However, what is of concern is that not all testers put ethical principles into practice. A dimension that could account for the lack of professional standards seems to be the noninvolvement or the need for proper involvement of stakeholders in language assessment. This article1 examines two testing situations in India and addresses the question of whether and to what extent involving stakeholders in language assessment improves ethicality.
