In my local Moodle course I didn't find the backupdata/quiz folder to download the files created with Quiz questions.

Does anybody has tested this issue?

There are one more bug on exporting: when exporting category data, even in the Moodle XML own format, category name is exported but category description don't.

I reported it as MDL-23545, it is don't work both in Moodle 1.9 and 2.0.

Oleg, thanks for reporting the issue. I've just removed it as a dependency for this QA test though, as according to Tim:

Exporting category info is a missing feature that has never been present, so if it is not present in 2.0 that is not a regression.

I started on MDL-15573, and messages from Tim (in dev chat):

The really important format is Moodle XML. That is meant to be a perfect representation of the question, so you can transport questions from one Moodle to another without loosing any data.

But, it is also meant to be perfectly backwards-compatible.

I suggest you file a separate bug for updating Moodle XML format, and don't worry about the others.

fail tested on MAMP with moodle preview 4+ build 20100905.

questions can be added to question bank and exported in selected formats: GIFT, IMS, Moodle and XHTML, however upon clicking link to download file error dialogue reads: Sorry, the requested file could not be found.

http://docs.moodle.org/en/error/moodle/filenotfound.

I note that the exported files are located in courseID/backupdata/quiz/ but upon question bank import of said files via 'upload a file' to another course, error dialogue reads: An unknown problem occurred while uploading the file '{$a}' (perhaps it was too large?)

Just removing this test from QA1, as the issue of course files in 2.0 needs resolving before Dongsheng returns to question export. The test can be re-run as part of QA2.
