I agree with the Nay!
I am new to the club but not to ham radio. I was first licensed as WA6VPX IN 1976. I have operated from VQ9, KG4, VP9 and got my Extra the hard way in about ‘84. It is not nearly as difficult as it once was considering the test questions and answers are published and CW is gone.
Let’s not give is all away by allowing/condoning cheating by doing testing on line as a matter of course!

?Sadly I see this as a way to devalue the amateur radio license, as it makes it possible to cheat. Anyone can open two browser windows or use two devices in order to obtain answers to questions. While online, if accessible, may be nice for us disabled folks, such testing comes with lots of issues such as:
1. Accessibility, will all potential test takers be able to use the site?
2. What about preventing folks from cheating?
3. And will this replace the VE and thus render them unnecessary?
Thus no I am not in favor of online testing.
