Test Setup and execution
Launching and completing the first course
- Launch the ADL 1.2.7 Testsuite in Internet Explorer in one tab – IE 8 was used in this example.
- Select the link “Learning Management System (LMS) Run-Time Environment Conformance Test “
From here – it is assumed that the users knows everything that is required of them to operate the test suite.
- At the point it is necessary to access the LMS, open another browser tab and launch Moodle in it, as before, going to
http://localhost. This ensures that the JAVA Applet from the test suite is available in the JavaScript layer of the actual
running tests.
- Log into Moodle by clicking on the Login link shown in the top right corner of the screen shown below.
Use the username `joestudent` and the password `password` to log in at this point.
- Select the link under the heading `My courses` for `ADL SCORM Test 1.2` as shown below, You can now see links to the two ADL SCORM test activities setup previously.
- Select the link `ADL SCORM Test Course I` to launch the first test, Here you are able to switch the Mode for the course between Normal and Preview. Normal (default) is used when testing cmi.core.credit = credit and is used for `ADL SCORM Test Course I`. Preview is used when testing cmi.core.lesson_mode = browse, and cmi.core.credit = no-credit. This is used initially when testing `ADL SCORM Test Course II` Click on the `Enter` button to launch the next SCO in the sequence
- When each SCO is finished you can proceed to the next by clicking on the `Continue` button located in the table of
content shown to the left.
- During SCO 4 you will be required to log out and then back in again twice in order to complete the SCO. You can log out
by clicking on the `Logout` link shown in the top right corner.
- Once logged out you will need to log back in again and navigate back to, and enter the SCO.
- As mentioned above you will need to log out and in again for a second time in order to complete the SCO.
- At this point you simply need to proceed through each SCO as it is successfully completed.
- When the final SCO is completed, then log the student out, but do not close the tab/window until the entire testing
procedure is completed. Instead, alternate between the tabs to complete the process.
