Olly Hayes

Worked on the kialo/moodle-mod_kialo repository, delivering backend enhancements for the Kialo Moodle plugin over a two-month period. Developed a backend function in PHP to update discussion URLs in the plugin’s database, introducing robust error handling and comprehensive PHPUnit-based unit tests. Refactored test structures for maintainability and improved code quality through formatting and variable renaming. Enhanced the grading service to retrieve grade items scoped per course, preventing cross-course data conflicts, and implemented a minor grading synchronization fix. Managed release progression by updating versioning and changelogs, moving the plugin from beta to stable, and maintained strong version control practices throughout.
