- GUI review with Marc needed
I simply added a left-aligned import link after Add New Pool. The import link goes to an import pool screen like assessment. After import, the pool returns to the main Question Pools screen. I'll get screen shots to Marc and see how he wants to handle the design approval process.
*Code Delivery, Code Review and Testing
I'm using a local svn 2.2 trunk to save my code changes. The files need to be merged with current trunk for testing on your end. I'd also like you to review the code since I'm a newbie. Please catch anything that's awfully bad!
I need to merge with our local 2.1.x trunk for testing at Davis. Code testing needs to be done to validate that all the currently importable question types are imported currectly. Rigorous testing is needed - and the best source of importable xml files are existing assessments.
Also, I need to get a test to Megan prior to collab QA testing and suggest to them how to get pools for import.
*Release Timing
Most of the steps above must be completed before releasing to collab, so you can see it may be a few weeks yet.
A major issue for releasing to 2.3+ would be the value of the release. I'm not sure how many faculty would want to import their quizzes into a question pool, although it does beat importing each question singly!
The question would be whether to go ahead and release or wait until either question pool export or import from Respondus (or BlackBoard) is also completed. I guess I can bring this up in the assessment and dev lists an see what responses I get.
