Improvements

The issues mentioned under the section improvements are considered as new functionality, user experience improvements and bug fixes.

‍

On the evaluation general page the available public report should be shown as button - EV-290

The report button on the general page leads to the public report, but the report is not always available based on the evaluation type. The button should only be available when there is a report configured and available.

A change is applied that prevents showing the button in case no public report is configured, and show the name of the configured public report if it is configured.

‍

Technical error is shown when updating the start date of an open evaluation - EV-291

When changing the start date of an open evaluation a server error is shown to the user, and it is not possible to update the date of the evaluation. The cause has been found and is fixed (and is also applied as hot-fix to production).

‍

New benchmark report option added - EV-255

A new benchmark option is added that support configuration and display of a benchmark based on evaluations in a specific period and based on a specific filter, e.g. faculty.

The resulting reports looks like the following images, where in case the benchmark is configured:

• the deviation from the institution average for the selected evaluation is shown
• the deviation from the filtered value (e.g. faculty) for the selected evaluation is shown

The report can be exported in an Excel or CSV format, where the 3 values in the report shown in 'one cell' are spread over separate columns.

Administrator configuration:

The first step to configure the usage of a filter-based benchmark, navigate to the Admin -> Parameters page and configure the filter value to be used as benchmark tag.

The next step is to configure which questions should be benchmarked. This is done by setting the Benchmark from and Benchmark to dates on the relevant questions.

The final step is to navigate to Statistics -> Benchmarks. This provides an overview of all questions and their calculated benchmarks.
In case there are no benchmarks shown, maybe due to the fact the benchmark is just enable on a question, click the synchronize button to start re-calculation of the benchmarks.

Security

An integral part of our develop and build processes is automatic scanning for known security vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities will be fixed based on their impact, which means that in some cases an immediate hot-fix will be applied, and in other cases the vulnerability will be fixed in the current or next Sprint (release). The security section provides an overview of the vulnerabilities mitigated.

During this release no vulnerabilities have been reported.

For more information on reported vulnerabilities, see the central database of vulnerabilities.
