Proctoring Technical Debt

The current proctoring implementation in edx-platform is complex and difficult to test. We don't have good ways of verifying if it is broken until it is out in production. Work was done previously to port a lot of this complexity to a different IDA and use LTI within the edx-platform to simplify how edx-platform operates with proctoring. However, this work stalled out due to lack of resources. I'm capturing the available information about this work here in-case we either want to pick it up in the future or otherwise want to make changes in this space.

Start by reading edx-proctoring/docs/decisions/0004-exam-ida.rst and edx-exams/docs/decisions/0001-purpose-of-this-repo.rst to understand the proposed IDA and LTI approach. The issue provides no concrete implementation target or completion criteria, so the next step would be to define the intended scope before making changes.
