Basically, test that nothing is broken Login as admin, teacher, student, manager, user with manager or course creator role only in one category. Please note - if there are minor bugs on /course/manage.php please don't fail the test rather create a new issue. If there is oddness in behaviour (especially redirecting not where you were after action) make sure this is now worse than in master. There is a big issue MDL-31830 for making the management friendlier. The most important is to test that /course/index.php and /course/category.php work as expected. But again, this issue is not fixing the existing bugs. Start with a website without courses On the front page ($CFG->frontpageloggedin) add all types of course listings Browse frontpage and all courses Create courses in "Miscellaneous" category Browse frontpage and all courses Set $CFG->coursesperpage to something small Browse paginated courses Create more categories with subcategories and courses in them, mark some as hidden Navigate between categories Jump to "manage category" (try different types of users). Click buttons for different types of actions, make sure they do (or lead to) where expected Retest issues MDL-36554 , MDL-35818 , MDL-32526 , MDL-34435 because their changes were integrated during merge
