This case study investigated five test‐takers' use of news videos in a listening‐to‐summarize task, and the extent to which the different strategies they employed in processing the visual and the audio elements of the videos affected their performance. It reports the significant features of the visual and audio elements that the test‐takers made use of, and the interaction between these elements and test‐takers' personal characteristics and summarization performance. Data was collected via verbal reports and follow‐up interviews. A discussion of the findings follows in connection with the use of videos in testing and teaching listening comprehension skills, and suggestions for future research are made
