Running Open edX

You have gone through the installation: at this point, you should have a running Open edX platform. If you don’t, please follow the instructions from the Troubleshooting section.

Logging-in as administrator

Out of the box, Tutor does not create any user for you. You will want to create a user yourself with staff and administrator privileges to access the studio. There is a simple command for that.

Importing a demo course

To get a glimpse of the possibilities of Open edX, we recommend you import the official demo test course. Tutor provides a simple command for that.

Verifying your platform with smoke tests

Once your platform is running, you can verify it with the built-in smoke test suite:

tutor local do tests smoke

To also create the test admin user and OAuth2 client and run authenticated tests:

tutor local do tests smoke --setup

For full documentation on CLI options, writing plugin tests, and the --limit flag, see the testing guide.
