Exercise 2.8: Testing content types
Content test - manual
Create a Job listing manually.
Go to Content -> Add content → Job posting.
On the Add Job posting form, enter the following information:
Job Title – Police Officers
Terms of employment – Permanent
Leave all remaining default settings.
You should now see your newly created Job Posting.
Content test – generated content
Often we need content to help test new content types. However, creating content manually can be very time consuming. Instead, we can use the Devel Generate – a module, bundled in GovCMS.
Note: The Devel Generate module should not be enabled or used in a production website.
This module is already enabled on your training environment.
Go to Configuration → Generate → Generate content.
Select the Job Posting checkbox.
Enter 10 in the How many nodes would you like to generate? field.
