Known Issues

1. Test & Assessment "Postpone question" patch for ILIAS 3.5.4

Postponing a questions leads to unpredictable results in Test&Assessment which could cause wrong question results and questions missing in the sequence of questions for a learner. To correct this behaviour it is strongly recommended to install this patch file over your ILIAS 3.5.4 installation.
To fix postpone problems it is necessary to copy the patch file (class.ilObjTest.php into your assessment/classes directory on your ILIAS server. You must overwrite the existing file of the same name.

Please note that this patch works only on the official ILIAS 3.5.4 version!
