PROBLEM

While creating a question, the "Marks" field currently
allows very large values (e.g., 100000).

This is not practical for assessments and may lead to
incorrect scoring or reporting issues.

The marks value should be restricted to a reasonable limit.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Login as Admin
   Open the application: http://test.tadreeblms.com/
   Login using admin credentials:
   Username: [[email protected]]
   Password: 123456
2. Navigate to:
   Courses Management → Questions
3. Click "Create Question"
4. Enter a very large number in the "Marks" field
   (e.g., 100000)
5. Save the question

ACTUAL RESULT

The system accepts marks with unlimited digits.

EXPECTED RESULT

Marks should be limited to a maximum of 3 digits.

Allowed range example:

1 – 999

Any value greater than 999 should trigger validation error.

Example error message:

"Marks cannot exceed 999."

VALIDATION RULES REQUIRED

Marks field:

✔ Numeric only
✔ Minimum value: 1
✔ Maximum value: 999

Example validation:

marks => required|numeric|min:1|max:999

AREAS TO CHECK

Frontend:
Question creation form

Backend:
QuestionController
StoreQuestionRequest

Database:
questions.marks column

IMPACT

• Prevents unrealistic scoring
• Keeps assessments standardized
• Avoids reporting anomalies

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA

✔ Marks cannot exceed 3 digits
✔ Validation error shown for values > 999
✔ Backend validation enforced
✔ UI input restriction implemented
