Since PHP 7.0 the random_bytes() is nativley available and Moodle
LMS requires greater than PHP 7, the native PHP funciton can be
used exclusively. Deprecating random_bytes_emulate.
Applied the following changes to various testcase classes:
- Namespaced with component[\level2-API]
- Moved to level2-API subdirectory when required.
- Fixed incorrect use statements with leading backslash.
- Remove file phpdoc block
- Remove MOODLE_INTERNAL if not needed.
- Changed code to point to global scope when needed.
- Fix some relative paths and comments here and there.
- All them passing individually.
- Complete runs passing too.
Special mention to:
- Some fixtures, initially defined in the test files have been
moved to new files in fixtures subdirectory, leaving the unit
test files clearer:
- moodle2_course_format_test.php
- Rename wrong named test:
- baseoptiogroup_test = baseoptigroup_test
Before this patch the exported users (to csv file that jmeter consumes)
were all the enrolled users in the test course. And that's ok when the
number of users enrolled match the number of concurrent threads planned
for a jmeter plan (each thread is a user).
But when both numbers don't match, that can lead to the jmeter plan
not behaving as expected, because it iterates over the excessive users
in the file, leading to some users having run 5 loops, others 4...
The only way to make results more consistent is to, always, ensure that
the number of users exported for the plan match the plan size and not
the site size.
And that's what this issue exactly does, restrict the export to the
number of threads that the plan will have. So every user always runs
the very same number of loops.

Why 20210525? (25th May 2021) ?
Because master is going to be Moodle 4.0, to be released
on November 2021. And, until then, we are going to have
a couple of "intermediate" releases:
- Moodle 3.10 to be released 9th November 2020. (2020110900)
This version will be using versions from today to 2020110900
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
- Moodle 3.11 to be released 10th May 2021. (2021051000)
This version will be using versions from 3.10 release to 2021051000
(once it's released the YYYYMMDD part stops advancing).
That means that all versions from today to 2021051000 are going
to be used by those 2 "intermediate" releases (3.10 and 3.11).
And we cannot use them in master, because it's forbidden to have
any overlapping of versions between branches (or different upgrade
paths will fail).
So, get that 2021051000, let's add it a couple of weeks to cover
the on-sync period (or a 2 weeks delay max!) and, the first version
that master can "own" in exclusive (without any overlap) is, exactly,
25th May 2021, hence our 20210525.
Use core functions that are faster for test file creation.
To support large requests for hashes, the core hash function
must support large hashes without recursion. PHP has a default
recursion depth of 100 and long hashes don't support this.
Remove transactions as they create performance problems for larger
courses and doesn't introduce significant benefit for developers.
Performance changes meant the times were much faster, a reasonable
guess was taken on performance of an average machine.
dirname() is a slow function compared with __DIR__ and using
'/../'. Moodle has a large number of legacy files that are included
each time a page loads and is not able to use an autoloader as it is
functional code. This allows those required includes to perform as
best as possible in this situation.
Added course start date for the course generated by the course
generator in order to prevent incorrect date calculations
(i.e. in assignment due dates) when the generated course is reset.
version = planned 2015051100 release version
requires= current 2015050500 rc1 version
Note: On purpose, the course format social wrong version (2015102100)
has been kept unmodified. Looking forward a solution right now.
