The Wiesen Test of Mechanical Aptitude (WTMA) is a brief, written test of mechanical aptitude. The WTMA measures basic ability rather than formal schooling or job experience. It uses pictures and simple sentences to ask questions about everyday objects and situations. In that way, the WTMA is designed to give all candidates an equal chance to do well, whatever their academic preparation or work experience.
The Bennett Mechanical Comprehension Test (BMCT) is a widely used and extensively validated assessment of mechanical aptitude. For more than 60 years, this instrument has helped organizations select the best candidates for mechanical, repair, and industrial occupations. The BMCT can help identify candidates with good spatial perception and mechanical reasoning abilities, as well as with an aptitude for learning mechanical processes and tasks.
The SHL Technical Test Battery includes a Mechanical Comprehension test which measures the understanding of basic mechanical principles and their applications to a number of devices, including pulleys, gears and levers. A core skill relevant in many technical jobs.

This test measures a candidate’s understanding of principles of mechanics, spatial ability, and cause and effect relationships. Specific item content is wide ranging and includes: wheels, gears, clamps, levers, sliding rods, shafts, pulleys, weights, conveyor belts, fixed and non-fixed pivots, and springs.
