      Prerequisites:
      You'll need an existing course with a teacher enrolled.

      Test Steps:
      As an Admin user, you'll first need to create two new preconfigured tools for site-wide use:

      Create a tool with a non-empty description (Tool A):

      1. Site Admin > Plugins > Activity Modules > LTI > Manage Tools
      2. Click 'Configure a tool manually' in the Add Tool section.
      3. Enter values for name, URL, and description and save. You should see your tool listed at the bottom of the page and it should be listed as active.

      Create a tool with an empty description (Tool B):

      1. Site Admin > Plugins > Activity Modules > LTI > Manage Tools
      2. Click 'Configure a tool manually' in the Add Tool section.
      3. Enter values for name, URL (leave the description field blank) and save. You should see your tool listed at the bottom of the page and it should be listed as active.

      Now, as the enrolled Teacher, you'll check the help text on the activity picker, when selecting a tool pre-configured by the admin.

      1. Log in and navigate to the course home.
      2. Enable editing, and click 'Add and activity or course'. You should see your pre-configured tool listed here.
      3. Select Tool A and confirm that:
        a) You see the description text in the right pane.
        b) You see a link to docs below the description text.
      4. Select Tool B and confirm that:
        a) You see only a generic message stating that there is no help available for this activity or resource.
      5. Select a default module and confirm that:
        a) You see the description text in the right pane.
        b) You see a link to docs below the description text.

      Also check that creating a tool as a Teacher gives the same results:

      1. Click course name to get to course home page.
      2. Enable editing
      3. Click 'Add an activity or resource'
      4. Select 'External Tool' and click 'Add'.
      5. Next to the 'Preconfigured tool' drop down, click the plus symbol to add a new tool.
      6. Fill out the resulting form, making sure to enter a value for description (Tool C).
      7. Repeat the above steps to create a tool with an empty description (Tool D).
      8. Now, navigate back to course home, click 'Add an activity or resource' and confirm you see your new tool in the picker.
      9. Select Tool C and confirm that:
        a) You see the description text in the right pane.
        b) You see a link to docs below the description text.
      10. Select Tool D and confirm that:
        a) You see only a generic message stating that there is no help available for this activity or resource.
