Implementation Guide - Test your implementation
After you set up your event categories, event templates, and custom fields, add or import your events, and publish your Trumba Connect calendars to a staging website, it's time to thoroughly test your implementation.
Here are some suggestions for what to test:
- Do your event categories adequately describe all of the events you want to publish?
- Have you created an event template for each type of event that requires a unique collection of fields?
- Have you created a custom field for each subcategory of events that is associated with each category?
- Have you created a custom field for each attribute on which you want site visitors to be able filter events?
- Does each editor have the appropriate level of permission? That is, can each editor accomplish required tasks without having access to settings that affect others?
- Do your website calendars and other spuds look and behave the way you expect them to on all browsers?
- When you click an event title or "See All" link in a spud, do you end up at the appropriate place?
- Are your filters behaving appropriately?
- When you search for events, do you get the results you expect?
- When people register for events, are you collecting all of the information you need?
- Does your event submission form work for all event categories and event templates?
- Does your event actions window look the way you expect?
- Can you successfully repurpose a subset of your events to print?
- Are calendar emails getting sent at the appropriate time and do they contain the events you expect?
