In my highschool maths grades were always 100% based on tests.
I get the idea of motivating students to do their homework failing them when they test perfect doesn't make sense.
I like it when the homework allows the students to skip questions on the test. That way you reward the work but still let's the students catch up if they didn't do the homework.
I like what my Calculus teacher in college did. Homework was only 3% of your grade, but if you did at least 80% of the homework, then you could redo any questions you got wrong on the tests and midterm.
