From the time Stalnaker (1974) asked for the development of a pragmatic theory to take into account a detailed explanation of linguistic context, still there is not an agreed-upon theory to explain pragmatic knowledge (Roever, 2011). Due to the vital importance of reliability and validity in language assessment, it is imperative to develop a construct definition for the tests of pragmatic knowledge to be more valid, authentic, and generalizable. In this paper, a short review of pragmatism as well as some issues in the assessment of the pragmatic competence, such as reliability, validity, and practicality, is presented
