While this change is not 100% required now, it's good habit
and we are checking for it since Moodle 4.4.
All the changes in this commit have been applied automatically
using the moodle.PHPUnit.TestReturnType sniff and are, exclusively
adding the ": void" return types when missing.
There are inherent issues with task blocking which mean that it has
never worked properly. It is also very buggy and can lead to massive
performance issues with task processing.
It is almost impossible to deprecate this in a staged fashion because
various APIs use the methods and it is not possible to determine which
are API uses and which are other valid uses.
In reality there has been little-to-no uptake on the use of this feature
and it should just be removed.
Applied the following changes to various testcase classes:
- Namespaced with component[\level2-API]
- Moved to level2-API subdirectory when required.
- Fixed incorrect use statements with leading backslash.
- Remove file phpdoc block
- Remove MOODLE_INTERNAL if not needed.
- Changed code to point to global scope when needed.
- Fix some relative paths and comments here and there.
- All them passing individually.
- Complete runs passing too.
Special mention to:
- Some fixtures, initially defined in the test files have been
moved to new files in fixtures subdirectory, leaving the unit
test files clearer:
- moodle2_course_format_test.php
- Rename wrong named test:
- baseoptiogroup_test = baseoptigroup_test
Specially noticeable under Windows, where some resources/files
are kept open/busy/locked, causing all sort of problems, easily
detectable in phpunit resets.
This patch adds asynchronous backup and restore functionality
to Moodle. This is an optional feature and is not enabled by
default. It can be enabled by site administrators.
Asynchronous backup and restores are actioned by the Moodle
adhoc task API. The progress of backup and restores is
displayedin the Moodle UI. Users can also be sent a message
when a backup or restore operation completes via the
Moodle messaging API.
