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:
- When belonging to other components and being valid api:
- analytics related tests have been moved to tests/analytics subdir.
- backup & restore related tests have been moved to tests/backup subdir.
- events related tests have been moved to tests/event subdir.
- privacy related tests have been moved to tests/privacy.
- task related tests have been moved to tests/task subdir.
- Some simple renames, not including the component part anymore (not
needed now that they are namespaced):
- some xxxlib_test.php have been renamed lib_test.php
(when they where testing the corresponding lib.php).
- cache stores tests have been all renamed store_test, originally
each one had its own name (file_test, apcu_test, redis_test...)
- assign feedback tests have been all renamed feedback_test, originally
each one had its own name (file_test, editpdf_test...)
Moodle announced that support for IE would be dropped back in August
2020 with Moodle 3.9 but not active steps were taken at that time. That
decision was made in MDLSITE-6109 and this particular step was meant to
be taken in Moodle 3.10.
This is the first step taken to actively drop support for IE.
This commit also bumps the browser support pattern from 0.25% to 0.3%.
The percentage here includes any browser where at least this percentage
of users worldwide may be using a browser. In this case it causes
support for Android 4.3-4.4 to be dropped, which relate to Android
KitKat (released 2013).
This combination of changes means that all of the supported browsers in
our compatibility list support modern features including async,
for...of, classes, native Promises, and more which has a huge impact on
the ease of debugging code, and drastically reduces the minified file
size because a number of native Polyfills included by Babel are no
longer included.
Unfortunately the babel minify-mangle plugin seems to be abandoned and
in certain circumstances can be very buggy. The only safe options are to
disable it, or to switch to a different minification library.
Not minifying our javascript is not ideal, so this commit updates the
javascript tasks to use a rollup, combined with babel, and terser.
Babel still converts code from ES/UMD/AMD to AMD modules with the
relevant browser support, whilst terser minifies the code.
The rollup bundler handles tracking and creation of sourcemaps, and
supports better parallelisation of the tasks.
Since the upgrade to Node LTS/Gallium requires an upgrade to @babel/core
and eslint, which change the built files anyway, this seems like the
ideal time to make this change.
As far as now all them have correct privacy level2 namespace:
- Move them to "privacy" subdir.
- Rename the files to "provider_test.php", this includes old
privacy_test.php and privacy_provider_test.php files
- Rename the testcase to provider_test too (to match file name)
Also, change some relative paths and comments to point to new
locations.
All privacy_test and privacy_provider_test classes:
- Namespaced with component\privacy.
- Fixed incorrect use statements with leading backslash.
- Changed code to point to global scope when needed.
- Renamed a few files to make all be privacy_test or privacy_provider_test.php
- All them passing individually.
- Complete runs passing too.
These are the only cases 100% safe to apply the renaming of the
testcase class names to match the file names.
All other cases are not safe, because they are missing namespace
and may enter into name conflicts. Adding namespaces is not as
simple as imagined because it implies to, also, add a good number
of modifications to core. See the issue for more details.
This implementation will introduce a qbank plugin "managecategories"
which will add the question categories feature in the question bank view
by replacing the core classes. Having this plugin will give users
the flexibility of enabling or disabling the category tab.
