Recently, PHPUnit (all versions) did some changes about how the
comparators worked and this has caused some float comparisons
to stop working.
We need to move them to assertEqualsWithDelta(), allowing a small
tolerance to workaround the floats comparison problem.
0.00001 has been decided. And applied to all the similar assertions
within the unittest function, so if more cases are added to them
better be copied with the agreed tolerance.
When questions are deleted, we now check if the parent is in use before deletion.
Prior to this, it would be possible for multianswer questions to reference
questions that have been deleted. This results in fatal errors when the quiz
is viewed.
This patch uses a dummy 'subquestion_replacement' to handle this case and
display some information to the end user about what has happened so that
they may take action to repair the corrupted question.
As a result of the bug described above, the sequence column of
mdl_question_multianswer can contiain references to questions that no
longer exist, and these IDs can make their way in to backups.
When this happens, the backups cannot be restored. To avoid this,
this patch skips trying to restore those questions that reference
question IDs that no longer exist (as there is no way to recover them).
This commit implements the status change pop up for a question
in the base view. This feature update will allow the change of
status of a question without creating a new version.
This commit also implements the status as a char rather than
an int value.
This commit adds the changes in questiontype base
to work with new question tables and the new structure in the
databse. Also needed for versioning.
This implementation will also introduct the question status
which allows a question to be in draft and ready status.
I also introduces changes to the base view where it shows
the latest version of the questions. The view of versions
for a question is not implemented in this commit.
This implementation will also introduce changes in the core
qtype plugins to support versioning and the changed
db schema.
In PHPUnit 9.1, the following regexp-related assertions
have been deprecated and there are new alternatives for
all them:
- assertRegExp() -> assertMatchesRegularExpression()
- assertNotRegExp() -> assertDoesNotMatchRegularExpression()
This is about to, simply, move all cases to the new alternatives.
Source: https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/blob/9.1.0/ChangeLog-9.1.md
Regexp to find all them:
ag 'assertRegExp|assertNotRegExp' -li
The optional parameters of assertEquals() and assertNotEquals()
are deprecated in PHPUnit 8 (to be removed in PHPUnit 9):
- delta => use assertEqualsWithDelta()
- canonicalize => use assertEqualsCanonicalizing()
- ignoreCase => use assertEqualsIgnoringCase
- maxDepth => removed without replacement.
More info @ https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3341
Initial search done with:
ag 'assert(Not)?Equals\(.*,.*,' --php
Then, running tests and fixing remaining cases.
Both assertContains() and assertNotContains() are deprecated in PHPUnit 8
for operations on strings. Also the optional case parameter is. All uses
must be changed to one of:
- assertStringContainsString()
- assertStringContainsStringIgnoringCase()
- assertStringNotContainsString()
- assertStringNotContainsStringIgnoringCase()
More info: https://github.com/sebastianbergmann/phpunit/issues/3422
Regexp to find all uses:
ag 'assert(Not)?Contains\('
All the setup/teardown/pre/post/conditions template methods
now are required to return void. This was warned with phpunit 7
and now is enforced.
At the same time, fix a few wrong function names,
provider data and param types, return statements...
Previously, the Check button was often shown disabled when it
could not be used (e.g. when the question was finished, or when an
interactive question was in the try-again state). Eventually we
realised it was better usability to hide it in these cases.
Note that when a teacher reviews an in-progress quiz attempt, they will
see a disabled Check button if the student doing the quiz can see the
button.
* A method to change the max mark for one question_attempt in the usage
* A method to replace one question in a usage with another, moving the
old question_attempt to the end.
* Methods to set and get metadata (string name value pairs) for each
question_attempt in the usage. This gets stored in the first step in a
way that should not interfere with anything else.
The new steps make it more efficient to create questions.
While making the changes, I took the opportunity to alter the tests to
follow Behat best practices, and only test one thing per scenario.
Whether the comments on manually graded questions were visible to
students should have been controlled by the 'Specific feedback' Review
option in the quiz settings. However, the quiz was not setting
$displayoptions->manualcomment, so it did not work.
Adds a set of options to the essay question type which implement
the following new features:
-Adds an input format which accepts only file uploads, and no
inline text.
-Adds an option to make the inline text response optional when
attachments are enabled, so students can choose to upload
an essay file.
-Adds an option to make attachments required, so essays without
attachments will be marked incomplete.
This parallels question_attempt->minfraction, which allows the
fractional mark to go below zere.
This is needed to allow the certainty-base marking behaviours to work
better.
At the moment, when attempt is built on the last one, "not yet answered"
message is shown, which confuses many people. This patch modifies the state to
"complete" for attempt based on previous and modifies the output string.
Many thanks to Tim Hunt for guiding me through quiz infrastructure and some code
suggestions.
1. Split the question_attempt tests into one class per file.
2. Imporve the API to give tests more control, and to test more of the
important code. Some of this is not used here, but it is about to be.
Comment format (FORMAT_...) was correctly being processed when the
manual grading happened as the result of a form submission. It was only
when done using the question_usage or question_attempt API method that
there was no way to specify the format. (Although I think the only place
this API as used was in the unit tests.)
Note that question_attempt::manual_grade API had to change, but I don't
think that is a real API change. Calling code should be using
question_usage::question_attempt, which is backwards compatible.
Note that now, if you don't pass format, then no error is generated, but
a developer debugging message is generated.
This was incorrect use of PARAM_CLEANHTML for these inputs.
This fix also adds some unit tests to try to verify that this does not
break again in future.
