Option to close or to not close a test at designated time

Deadline in tests is now absolute and students cannot be late even one minute. There should be a option to select this behaviour in all activity types. Without this option it should be possible to return assignments late, flagged as "returned late". In most of my courses the deadline is a strong suggestion, not an absolute :)

    Thank you for your idea. It is true that you can't start a test when the deadline has passed. If you are already taking the test and the deadline passes, there is a grace period of 5 minutes before the test is auto-submitted. We currently don't have plans to change this, but we'll leave the idea on the portal to see how many votes it gets.

    regards,
