The purpose of this test plan is to check the correct condition of key client and server settings and choices. It is not a complete test of all the user functionality. The plan requires the PROJECT in a box user you are using to have 'Admin' and 'Portfolio View' permissions.
For a server install checklist please see: KB0000210 Server Install Checklist.
For a more lightweight client test plan (which assumes the server is operating correctly) please see: KB0000216 Windows App Install Test Plan.
NB Be default the user that creates the project will have modify permission, and all other users will have no access. You can set permissions for other users from the Create New Project for or after the project is created.
