To test this issue you'll need a ims XML file with user/s, course/s and enrolment/s, there is one attachment, otherwise I think Ankit have a repository of files for this kind of uses. The interesting part is the course creation, the field used as main identifier of a course is enterprise->group->sourcedid->id If you use the attached ims.xml, it don't have a enterprise->group->description->full tag, you'll have to add it (just copy & paste another description child and replace the tag content) to also test this tag. Enable IMS enrolment type Go to Plugins -> Enrolments -> Manage enrol plugins Click 'Settings' on the IMS Enterprise row Add the path of the ims file and check the values 'createnewusers', 'createnewcourses' and 'createnewcategories', new you can leave the default values to the imscoursemap* settings Save changes Follow the link in the lower part of the IMS enrolment settings page 'perform an IMS Enterprise import right now' and ensure it finished without errors The course SHOULD be created with the shortname, fullname and summary values according to the specified mapping Change the imscoursemap* mapping, edit the XML file and change the enterprise->group->sourcedid->id value (to create another course) and execute again 'perform an IMS Enterprise import right now' The course SHOULD be created with the shortname, fullname and summary values according to the specified mapping Change again the imscoursemap* mapping to test all the description tag children tags (short, long and full), and check if the course creation respects that mapping
