I. Background
The purpose of the enhanced events module is to allow aD marketing to post events hosted by ArsDigita and others so that they are visible and intuitive for users to view and register, and for administrators to post and edit. The main focus of the re-work is to make the user interface simpler and easier to use.
II. Introduction
This is a detailed test plan for the module Enhanced Events.
The site is configured as follows:
- The module is divided into two sections: internal events and external events
- There are two distinct user groups: users (unregistered, registered, employees) and admins (event admins and site wide admins)
- Users can view events, register for events, register for alerts, and send email to a friend
- Admins can add events, edit events, categorize events, revoke events, delete events, export lists of registrants to excel, request graphics for a banner, and view event coordinators.
The tests are divided into six sections:
III. Test as a Non-registered User
Non registered users use the module to view public
events. All registration forms generated by the events module require a user to be registerd, but a non-registered user still has some privilidges. It must be tested that non-registered users:
