Description

This PR fixes a fatal runtime crash on the Output page (Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'forEach')) when navigating to /output with missing, corrupted, or differently structured quiz responses in localStorage. It also incorporates review improvements for safe history retrieval, question classification, and Google Form exports.

Changes Made:

• Crash Prevention:

  • Wrapped localStorage.getItem("qaPairs") parsing in a try/catch block to safely handle invalid or corrupted JSON payloads.
  • Added strict Array.isArray() checks before iterating over output_mcq["questions"], output_boolq["Boolean_Questions"], and qaPairsFromStorage["output"].
  • Added a graceful empty-state fallback UI when no questions are available instead of crashing or rendering blank content.
  • Disabled PDF and Google Form export buttons when question list is empty.

• Question Type Safety & History Normalization:

  • Updated Previous.jsx to store quiz.questionType when present, infer it from quiz.qaPair for legacy quizzes, and explicitly clear selectedQuestionType when unknown so stale quiz types from previous sessions never persist.
  • In Output.jsx, updated question parsing to identify MCQs by property inspection (options, question_statement, correct_answer) so MCQ questions opened from history are never misclassified or stripped into Boolean questions.
  • Set default answer to blank ("") for output_boolq.Boolean_Questions to avoid printing false "True" answers in PDF exports.
  • In generateGoogleForm, added derivation of the question type fallback from normalized questions (Boolean -> get_boolq, MCQ -> get_mcq, Short -> get_shortq) so the backend Google Form builder creates questions with valid choices.

Addressed Issues:

Fixes #610

Checklist:

• My code follows the style guidelines of this project
• I have performed a self-review of my own code
• Tested with multiple question formats (MCQ, Boolean, Short) and empty/corrupt states

Walkthrough

The quiz flow now stores question type with quiz details and restores it when a saved quiz is selected. The output page normalizes stored question formats, handles invalid data, and displays an empty state when no question pairs are available.

Changes: Quiz output

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Persist and restore question type eduaid_web/src/pages/Text_Input.jsx, eduaid_web/src/pages/Previous.jsx	Saved quiz details now include questionType. Selecting a quiz stores its truthy question type before navigation.
Normalize and edit question data eduaid_web/src/pages/Output.jsx	The loader handles invalid JSON, infers missing question types, and normalizes Boolean, MCQ, and short-question data. MCQ letter answers resolve to options. Editing defaults invalid options to an array and preserves the existing answer when the edited answer is empty.
Render empty state and guard export controls eduaid_web/src/pages/Output.jsx	The page displays an empty state and a link to /question-type when no question pairs are available. Google Form and PDF controls are disabled when the list is empty.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review 4bf39

Opening an older saved quiz after a newer one can show an empty page with exports disabled. Boolean answer PDFs can also print wrong answers. Fix both before merging.

Review comments at @eduaid_web/src/pages/Output.jsx:
- Line 145: Validate the normalized question in the `Output` rendering flow and
skip entries when it is not a string, including object-valued questions from
`get_boolq_llm`; preserve rendering of valid string questions.
- Around line 144-147: Update the Boolean mapping in the combinedQaPairs
construction to retain the answer returned by get_boolq_llm for both true and
false, and preserve it when questions are edited so answer PDFs do not receive
undefined. Keep Google Form Boolean questions represented as choices while
retaining their answers.
- Line 156: Update all three options assignments in the normalization branches
to use an array check on qaPair.options, defaulting to an empty array when it is
not an array, so malformed stored values cannot reach shuffledOptionsMap.
- Around line 155-157: Update the MCQ handling around `qaPair.options` and
`qaPair.answer` so letter answers such as “A” resolve to their corresponding
labelled option before choices are combined. Ensure the resolved option appears
only once in the page and question-only PDF choices, while preserving answers
that are already option text.
- Around line 141-146: Update the history save and restore flow around
qaPairsFromStorage and the questionType normalization branch so each quiz’s type
is saved and restored before its questions are normalized. Preserve MCQ answers
and options when restoring an MCQ, and handle existing history entries without
saved type metadata by determining their type from available stored data rather
than treating them as Boolean.
- Around line 401-410: Update the PDF and Google Form export actions in the
Output component to remain disabled whenever the stored question data is
missing, malformed, or contains no questions; enable them only when valid
questions are available, while preserving the existing empty-state behavior.

Review comments at @eduaid_web/src/pages/Output.jsx:
- Around line 121-136: Update generateGoogleForm to send a valid questionType
when available, and otherwise derive the backend question type from the
normalized qaPairs; keep the fallback aligned with the types expected by the
export endpoint.
- Around line 146-152: Update the Boolean question mapping that adds entries to
combinedQaPairs so questions from output_boolq.Boolean_Questions have a blank
answer instead of being marked True. Preserve only the True and False choices in
the generic Google Form path when the answer is blank.

Review comments at @eduaid_web/src/pages/Previous.jsx:
- Line 21: Update the quiz-selection flow in Previous.jsx so entries with no
questionType clear any previously stored type; ensure legacy entries whose type
cannot be inferred reliably are handled without reusing a stale type or
misclassifying their questions in Output.jsx.
