3. Go to 'Scheduled tasks' in the Site administration and run the 'Global search indexing' task via the link.
4. In the search box (at the top of any page), enter a word or phrase to search for.
5. Verify that the search results are as expected.
6. Add a global search block to the front page and click the search icon to go to the search page.
7. Try searching for items including single quotes and double quotes, each time verifying that the search results are as expected.
