In the higher ed web environment, there are often a wide variety of administrative users. While we want the creation and maintenance of content to be easy, we also want to guarantee that non-technical content creators cannot "break" the site.

In this webinar, we'll illustrate a few configuration options to show how to safely allow users to provide site content. Then, we'll demonstrate how tests can be used to verify the site's continued smooth operation within a moving landscape of content and code updates.

We'll cover:
- Configuring some aspects of the Drupal admin to enable a wide variety of users to create content
- Writing and running Selenium tests to challenge your site's functionality
- Using Drupal's SimpleTest module to verify functionality of custom modules

This is part 1 of a 3-part Drupal series. Next up:

Tuesday, April 17th: Customizing volumes of content
Tuesday, May 1st: Organizing content for multiple audiences
