Another
major function of TaskMaster is the ability to take care of
all the administrative tasks involved with planning,
preparing, and processing a rank or instructor testing; the
only thing left for the owner to do is conduct the actual
testing. The following are some of the testing tasks handled
by TaskMaster:
