Currently, the digital transformation of education is a necessary process of changing the content, methods and organizational forms of educational work in universities. The implementation of this process is impossible without the development of digital infrastructure, the creation of assessment systems and the emergence of public available sets of electronic learning materials, systems and services. In addition, it is necessary to form and develop digital competences among the faculty and students. In this context, the research presented in this paper is relevant. It considers working out and creation of a system for automatic control of the required competences development among students within specific academic disciplines, with the possibility of embedding such systems in electronic information and educational environments (EIEE), which operate in most universities in Russia. The aim of the article is to describe the experience of organizing students’ learning quality control using the testing system developed by the authors. The system is designed to control the quality of the laboratory work of the module "Statistical Analysis of Data in Medicine" by students of medical specialties of higher education institutions, which is a part of the discipline "Software of professional activities". During the development of the system, an analysis of the works of Russian and foreign scientists related to the issues of training medical personnel and developing their digital competencies in the context of healthcare informatization was made. In addition, the research materials are based on the available scientific and methodological materials and many years of experience in teaching disciplines related to medical informatics and ICT at the Medical Institute of Mordovia State University by the authors. The leading research method is the statistical analysis of the results obtained after the introduction of the developed testing system. The main results of the article include: determining the functionality of the created testing system and describing its architecture; justification of the choice of development tools for the practical implementation of this software solution; presentation of interface parts of the system for teachers and students with examples of work; explanation of the specific features of the system application in the educational process of a medical university. The article may be of practical interest to specialists involved in the construction of information systems to support the educational process, and to instructors teaching the disciplines of the ICT cycle to students of medical specialties at universities.
