Name of the English speaking test where you have to describe a scene

There is a well-known English Communication test which is used to assess primary and middle-school students' levels of spoken English. Students look at a scene card where several activities are taking place (for example, Scene: Hiking: "The man with the hat is hiking; The man with the walking cane is tired. The woman at the top is reading a book.")

Students are free to say whatever they want and use any words they know in English: the goal is for the students to accurately describe what they see usually within a time limit. The test is seen as an opportunity for students to improve their fluency.

What is this type of test called in English? Below, you can see an image that is very similar to the images seen in the test.

I'm looking for the specific name of the test. It does seem like the Thematic Apperception Test, but they use these cartoon-like images. This is a really hard question to answer, and I've been trying to contact people in Japan to find an answer to this problem. I encountered this type of test at a failing middle school in Kashiwa, I think.

The best suggestion I can offer is picture prompts.

In the Cambridge English Preliminary Exam, level B1, (aka PET), each candidate is given a detailed colour photo which they have to describe within a minute.

In Cambridge Young Learners' exams, students taking Starters have to recognize and identify the objects in the image; candidates in Movers are given two pictures in which to identify the differences while in Flyers, candidates have to explain why their picture is different from the examiner's.
