No further test passes when test status is passed

1 Initial Problem

The following configuration is not possible with the current test settings:

• Users have x (with x > 1) test runs, but as soon as they reach the test status "passed" no further test runs are allowed, even if they have not used up all possible test runs.

2 Conceptual Summary

A new test configuration setting for test runs is introduced that, when activated, blocks subsequent test runs once the user has reached the status "passed" with his last test run. *

* Since this setting will render the scoring of the best test pass basically obsolete, we might want to check if "Score the Best Pass" = true when activating and saving the new setting and vice versa.

3 User Interface Modifications

The setting would go under Test / Settings / General: Administering the test: Test Run

7 Discussion

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], 03 DEC 2018 : We highly appreciate this suggestion and schedule it for 6.0. Please consider to use the new form class for the implementation of the settings screen. In case of missing UI elements in the new service, please contact the UI coordinator Timon Amstutz.

8 Implementation

The implementation has been done according to the concept above. A new setting has been introduced within the general test settings:

When the test has been passed by a participant before the participant has used up all allowed tries, additional passes will be blocked and a corresponding hint is shown on the test's info screen:
