Too many functions, too different parameters, unnecessary DB queries.
All repositories developed for Moodle 2.3-2.5 will continue to work.
Also get rid of DB field files_reference.lifetime, it is not used by
anybody except repository itself.
Certainty -1 has never been used in standard Moodle, but is
used in Tony-Gardiner Medwin's patches to mean 'No idea' which
we intend to implement: MDL-42077. In the mean time, these changes
avoid errors for people who have used TGM's patches.
We now compute the average CBM score, accuracy, CBM bonus and enhanced
accuracy, both for the entire quiz, and for just the questions answered.
Note that these calculations must work correctly in the presence of
descriptions, ungraded questions, and manually graded questions. For
example, imagine a essay added at the end of the quiz "Summarise what
you learned attempting this exercise." This might have max mark zero or
non-zero. The CBM statistics just ignores questions like that.
We now change so that minfraction is -6 and maxfraction is 3, so getting
the question right a low certainty gives maxmark marks, and you get a
bonus for being more confident (rather than being penalised for being
unconfident). Mathematically it is the same, but the difference is
importnat psychologically.
We also change how partially correct scores are handled.
It is too harsh to penalise a partially correct score with full
certainty by doing a linear interpolation between -6 and +3. Instead,
any partially correct score (e.g. 0.5) becomes that fraction of the
correct score (e.g. 0.5 * 3 = 1.5). Also, any incorrect score is treated
as 0, so if you have a multiple choice question that normally gives a
negative score for a wrong choice, this will now never give a score of
less than -6.
Finally we change how this is displayed to students beside the question.
Rather than saying "Marked out of 1.00", we say "Base mark 1.00", and
then later we say "CBM mark 3.00" (or whatever it is).
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 top of the quiz reivew page, there is a table that summarises
infomration about the quiz attempt as a whole. For some question
behaviours, we would like to be able to add additional information to
that summary.
This commit introduces a generic method for the behaviour to provide
summary information about an entire question usage.
It was always a bit of a hack to use static methods on the
qbehaviour_whatever classes to return metadata about the behaviour. It
is better design to have real qbehaviour_whatever_type classes to report
that metadata, particularly now that we are planning to add more such.
For example, inheritance works better with real classes. See, for
example, the improvements in
question_engine::get_behaviour_unused_display_options().
This change has been implemented in a backwards-compatbile way. Old
behaviours will continue to work. There will just be some developer debug
output to prompt people to upgrade their code properly.
Adds 'Preparing page display' progress bars for user interface pages
if they take a long time to display.
Also adds changes where other parts of the backup progress timed out on
long backups. After this change, and MDL-41838, it is finally possible on
my dev server to successfully back up the 'XL' test course.
Using 'should see' outputs rather than an incorrect
xpath query. Also our custom selectors are not properly
used by WebAssert so switching to find xpath.
