      As an admin

      1. Check there's a new 'Messaging' category in main Site administration Page.
      2. Check  'Messaging' category has, at least, 2 setting pages.
        • 'Message settings' page must have 'Enable messaging system', 'Allow site-wide messaging', 'Use enter to send enabled by default', 'Delete read notifications', 'Delete all notifications' and 'Notification email override' settings.
        • 'Notification settings' page must have options to enable/disable 'Notification plugins' and for each notification plugin is enabled, must have 'Default notification preferences' options for different modules and activities.
      3. Access to 'Notification settings'.
      4. Click the checkbox next to a disabled notification plugin (e.g. Jabber). 
      5. Before saving, check the 'Default notification preferences section (the lower portion of the page), and verify you don't see a column for the plugin you selected in step 4 (I.e. Jabber).
      6. Click the 'Save changes' button.
      7. Check there is a column for the enabled plugin (i.e. Jabber) in the 'Default notification preferences' section.
      8. Go to Site administration.
      9. Check under the 'Notification settings' there's a link to the plugin's settings page for each notification plugin enabled in 'Notification settings' page with a 'Settings' link (i.e. Jabber)
      10. Check 'Enable messaging system', 'Allow site-wide messaging', 'Use enter to send enabled by default', 'Delete read notifications', 'Delete all notifications' and 'Notification email override' settings are not any longer in 'Advanced features' settings page.
      11. Check there's no 'Message outputs' category in Plugins admin page 

      As an admin, check all messaging settings work as expected:

      1. Go to Site administration -> Messaging -> Messaging settings
      2. Enable 'Enable messaging system' setting and Save changes. Check 'Toggle messaging drawer' is visible on the left side of the user menu.
      3. Disable 'Enable messaging system' setting and Save changes. Check 'Toggle messaging drawer' is not visible on the left side of the user menu.
      4. Enable 'Allow site-wide messaging' setting and Save changes. As a non admin user click on 'Toggle messaging drawer' icon and search for a user that is not enrolled in any of your courses. Check you can find them.
      5. Disable 'Allow site-wide messaging' setting and Save changes. As a non admin user click on 'Toggle messaging drawer' icon and search for a user that is not enrolled in any of your courses. Check you can't find them.
      6. Enable 'Use enter to send enabled by default' and Save changes. Click on 'Toggle messaging drawer' icon and search for a user. Click on one of the results and write a message to it. Check message is sent when you press Enter.
      7. Disable 'Use enter to send enabled by default' and Save changes. Click on 'Toggle messaging drawer' icon and search for a user. Click on one of the results and write a message to it. Check message is not sent when you press Enter, and you need to click in 'Send message' icon.

      Currently messaging related settings sit under 'Site administration' > 'Advanced features'. This should not be defined as an 'Advanced feature' and should become common use in any Moodle site. We should define a unique location for these settings in the main Site Administration category called 'Messaging'.

      We should add all Messaging related settings to a new page called 'Messaging settings'  in the 'Messaging' category.  

      The content from the 'Manage message outputs page' page should go in a new 'Notification settings' page with all the content from 'Default message outputs'.

      Note that the 'eye' icon for enabling the message outputs (Manage message outputs page) should be a checkbox to make clear it enables/disables rather than just show or hides notification settings for the user.

      Links to messaging plugins' settings page should be moved from Plugin admin page to the new 'Messaging' category in the main site administration page.
