      This fix changes a database query in the code that deals with regrading quiz attempts in Quiz admin -> Results -> Grades.

      This needs to be tested in particular on Oracle. Would be good to test all DBs (he writes, knowing that he won't be the one doing the testing).

      1. You need a quiz with several users, where each user has made several attempts.
      2. Go to Quiz admin -> Results -> Grades.
      3. Sort the table by the grade on one of the questions.
      4. In the report options, turn on the checkbox 'that are graded for each user ...'.
      5. In the quiz settings, under 'Grade', go through all 4 possible choices for 'Grading method' and reload the report each time. (You should see different data. Note that the 'that are graded for each user ...' setting does not work with Average grade.)
      6. Switch back to Highest grade, and make sure 'that are graded for each user ...' is on.
      7. Edit one of the questions in the quiz, to change which response is considered correct.
      8. Back in the report, click 'Dry run a full regrade'.
      9. Turn on the 'that have been regraded / are marked as needing regrading' option.

      At every stage, you need to check that there are no database errors, and the results are as you would expect.

      Note, there are unit tests for the key method.

      When reviewing the grades for a quiz, and modifying the report to only show attempts "that are graded for each user (Highest Grade)" results in the following Oracle error:
