description Amid COVID-19 pandemic, online formative assessment has grown in English Language Teaching. Previous researchers strongly contended that the accurate usage of online formative assessment could remarkably substantiate EFL learners’ target language learning motivation, achievements, and outcomes. This present qualitative study was conducted in support of a document analysis approach to generate varied insightful perspectives for Indonesian EFL teachers and learners to begin valuing the potential rewarding merits as a result of online formative assessment implementations in distant learning situations. Twenty relevant online formative assessment studies from 2020 until 2022 year were selectively chosen to produce more up-to-date and rewarding research findings worth applicable in nowadays Indonesian EFL teaching-learning enterprises. Based on the in-depth document analysis, two major pivotal research results strongly encouraged Indonesian EFL teachers to make use of online formative assessment in daily-based online learning activities namely: (1) online formative assessment progressively promotes holistic second language learning rewards for learners and (2) online formative assessment fully creates a more convenient EFL teaching-learning atmosphere for learners. These above-depicted research results opened a broader perspective for future researchers to replicate this research theme in the light of potential online formative assessment shortcomings and a greater number of relevant investigation sources.
