Does Quizgecko handle a partly correct learner answer?
Quizgecko gave useful feedback for the partly correct answer, but its scored result treated that same answer as fully correct. The explanation named what the learner got right and what idea was missing, while the score card still showed Correct and +15 XP with no partial-credit mark.

The 2 test cases
Each test case is judged on its own: Pass, Fail, Not gradable, or Untested. The scenario result above counts these rows.

“This shows the student thinks current gets consumed by the first lamp, so there's less of it left for the second one.”
Spot on! You correctly identified that the student thinks current gets consumed. You just missed noting that this also confuses current with electrical energy.

| ✓ | Expected: The feedback says what the learner got right, what idea is missing, and what to add for a complete answer.Found: It says the learner understood current being consumed, names confusion with electrical energy, and points to the missing idea in a response-specific way. |
The question, typed answer, ideal answer, and explanation are all visible, so the feedback can be checked directly. The explanation names the understood idea, names the missing idea, and ties that gap to this response rather than giving a generic model answer.
Encouraging opener. The explanation begins with 'Spot on!' even though the answer is incomplete.

| ✗ | Expected: The result should show partial credit or another distinct judgment, not the same outcome as a fully correct answer.Found: It marks the response Correct and awards +15 XP, with no partial-credit label, fraction, or reduced score. |
The case is a Fail because the product notices the missing idea but still marks the response Correct and gives full +15 XP, with no reduced score or partial-credit wording. That treats a partly correct answer like a fully correct one.
Score stayed full. The explanation names the understood idea and the missing idea, but the score still stays full and correct.

Configuration and setup
How this tool was set up for the run and what the test needed in place. Each row is a fact from the run's records; a fact the records do not hold is left out, not guessed.
How this scenario is graded
How we decide Pass, Fail and Not gradable. The same rules apply to every tool tested on this scenario.
Each test case gets one result per tool: Pass, Fail or Not gradable. A test case we haven't run yet shows Untested. There are no partial results.
- Pass: the tool did everything the test expected, and nothing it said contradicts the correct answer.
- Fail: at least one expected behaviour clearly didn't happen; the row says which and quotes the tool.
- Not gradable: our evidence couldn't settle the outcome (for example a record we needed is missing). It is never counted as a fail, and the row says what's missing.

History of this result
What has happened to this result since it was first published. Runs and grades are never overwritten: a retest or a re-grade publishes a new result and keeps the earlier one readable.
Act on this result
Nothing filed here edits the run or the grade. A challenge opens a review, and a review can produce a new run or a re-grade — which becomes the current result and leaves this one in the history.
You run the same kind of test against your own setup and get the same behaviour.
Agree →Yours behaves differently. Tell us what you got, with a screenshot if you have one.
Disagree →Something here is wrong — a reference value, a transcription, a grade.
Report an issue →Tell us what changed and we schedule a rerun of the failing test case. The old result stays as history.
Vendor notice →The same record is available as structured data through the AI Demos MCP server, with the counts, the coverage and every per-test-case reason carried as fields.
