Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getMinimumScore
Description	Gets the minimum score expressed as an integer (0-100) for this rule.
Return	`cardinal`		minimum score

Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getAppliedAssessmentPartIds
Description	Qualifies `isCumulative()` to apply to a specific list of assessment parts. If `isCumulative()` is `true,` this method may return an empty list to mean all previous assessment parts.
