Copying from a personal course
If you opted to copy content from one of your Courses, your new course will have the exact same content as the course you copied it from. However there is a slight difference between subjects and tests when copying the content.
For all subjects it will create references to the same subjects as in your original Course.
For all manual tests it will create references to the same manual tests as in your original Course.
For all automatic tests it will create new versions (i.e. different ID) with the same test content as in your original Course.
