      1. Go to any course as admin and in the Settings, click "question bank" > Categories. You have the option to add categories and choose a parent category.
      2. Go to the front page and in the Settings click "Questions". Check that the same option is there.
      3. Test with some other roles, to verify there are no errors shown on the front page, for users without permission to edit questions there.
