Upgrading from 7.x-4.x

If you do not have any custom question modules, an upgrade to 5.x is easy.

    1. Backup your database
    2. Remove the existing quiz folder
    3. Move the new quiz folder into place
    4. Run update.php
    5. Verify that existing quizzes work
    6. Verify that existing results work
    7. Done!

Note: There are core issues with MySQL 5.7, but only during the upgrade. See here if you have to use MySQL 5.7 and Drupal 7.

If you do have custom question modules, they may have to be updated slightly to work with the 5.x version.
