A) Preparations
- Edit course/edit_form.php
- Look for a line with the comment // Description..
- Immediately before that line, insert the following code:
$mform->addElement('header', 'duration', get_string('durationunits', 'admin'));$mform->setExpanded('duration');$mform->addElement('duration', 'durationunitstest1', 'Duration units test 1', array('units' => array(60, 3600)));$mform->addElement('duration', 'durationunitstest2', 'Duration units test 2', array('units' => array(3600, 86400, 604800)));$mform->addElement('duration', 'durationunitstest3', 'Duration units test 3', array('units' => array(1)));$mform->addElement('duration', 'durationunitstest4', 'Duration units test 4', array('units' => array()));$mform->addElement('duration', 'durationunitstest5', 'Duration units test 5'); - Save changes.
B) Verifications (with boost and classic)
- Go to any course existing in the site (or create a new one) and Edit settings
- In the form, after the course names and before the description there should be a "duration units" section, expanded with 5 elements.
- In that section, *verify that*:
- Duration units test 1 shows (in the units menu): minutes, hours
- Duration units test 2 shows: hours, days, weeks
- Duration units test 3 shows: seconds
- Duration units test 4 shows: seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks
- Duration units test 5 shows: seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks
C) Don't forget to clean the changes performed to course/edit_form.php after the tests.

The moodleform duration field allows the user to enter duration by one of the following units: weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds.
In some use cases we may want only a subset of the unit options. For instance, students should report time spent on a certain activity either by hours or by minutes.
This can be implemented by adding to the field fourth paramter api an option 'units' that is an array of units to display.
