Re: [Phptest-users] To all who want to support phptest read this
I agree with Donna. I have used phpTest for some 2-3 years now and think I might have rejected Moodle at the time in favour of phptest. I just needed (and still need) a fairly straightforward on-line test facility, and not a whole teaching environment. I much prefer software to be small, modular and adaptable rather than overgrown and bloated. Phptest fitted that bill and I would like to keep using it for as long as possible.

RE: [Phptest-users] To all who want to support phptest read this
If you could figure out how the questions are setup in the sql for phptest you could possibly convert them using a script to the setup moodle uses. This however would be some work. I'd suggest backing up your database (look up mysqldump) then playing with moodle making a few questions and dump that database as well. Compare the databases in a text editor such as pico (unix/linux/bsd), evolded (windows) http://www.home.no/evolved/index.html or even notepad :( Look for the questions, compare how they're setup... If you can, script a way to transform 'em. I still prefer the simplicity of phptest, but that's me. *shrug*Nowadays everyone wants something that does everything. I always consider that bloatedness. Hell I remember when I looked at windows xp at first, I thought it was the most bloated memory wasting piece of shit OS anyone could dream up. Now I accept it to game with. That doesn't mean I like it however. I still run a customized freebsd install for all my servers. And I hung on to windows 98sp2 until it was useless for gaming. In any event moodle does have some nice points to it. Oh, and your welcome. AARON B.
