This test requires admin access in order to set sessiontimeout in Site administration / Server / Session handling to 5 minutes.

If you would like to use the QA testing site for running the test, please see the QA testing guide for details of how to request admin access. Begin just after the hourly reset to give yourself plenty of time to complete the test!
