I want to extend the qtype_description_renderer in my theme.

i tried to put the file in myTheme/classes/output/qtype_description_renderer.php

namespace myTheme\output;

use question_attempt;
use question_display_options;

class qtype_description_renderer extends \qtype_description_renderer {
	
    public function formulation_and_controls(question_attempt $qa, question_display_options $options) {
		$question = $qa->get_question();
		$content = $question->format_questiontext($qa);
		return html_writer::tag('div', $content,
                array('class' => 'qtext customtest'));
    }
}

The class customtest was not added. No error-message was displayed.

The namespace looks wrong. It probably needs to be theme_myTheme\output.

Also, it is not normal moodle coding style to use camelcase. Does the auto class-loading work? Would be safer to keep it all lowercase.
