TOEFL is a Computer Adaptive Test (CAT).
TOEFL is an exam that determines whether a student whose native language is not English has enough spoken, written and heard skills to suceed in courses at a college or university in US or Canada. In addition, many government agencies, scholarship programs, and licensing/certification agencies use TOEFL scores to evaluate English proficiency.

The TOEFL Test is desinged for individuals abroad applying to a school in the U.S. basically to determine their english skills and see if you're going to have to take alternative courses to improve your English. I'm not quite sure what the mode of the exam is but I do know it had a writing portion and the rest is probably grammar, maybe fill in the blanks, etc...
