      • When creating a new question:
      1. Verify that it will not let you save if you don't enter anything in question text.
      2. Verify that an image with no surrounding text will satisfy the question text requirement.
      3. Verify that non-image content will satisfy the requirement.
      • Create a Cloze question, and make sure no errors are thrown.

    Description

      Currently question text is not a required field when creating or editing a question. This seems a little odd as when the quiz is displayed there will be no question asked for the student to answer.
