+Feature: Advanced (manual) course policy
+  In order to specify course policy settings for which no custom user interface exists
+  I want to be able to manually enter JSON key/value pairs
+
+  Scenario: A course author sees only display_name on a newly created course
+    Given I have opened a new course in Studio
+    When I select the Advanced Settings
+    Then I see only the display name
+
+  Scenario: Test if there are no policy settings without existing UI controls
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I delete the display name
+    Then there are no advanced policy settings
+    And I reload the page
+    Then there are no advanced policy settings
+
+  Scenario: Test cancel editing key name
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I edit the name of a policy key
+    And I press the "Cancel" notification button
+    Then the policy key name is unchanged
+
+  Scenario: Test editing key name
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I edit the name of a policy key
+    And I press the "Save" notification button
+    Then the policy key name is changed
+
+  Scenario: Test cancel editing key value
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I edit the value of a policy key
+    And I press the "Cancel" notification button
+    Then the policy key value is unchanged
+
+  Scenario: Test editing key value
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I edit the value of a policy key
+    And I press the "Save" notification button
+    Then the policy key value is changed
+
+  Scenario: Add new entries, and they appear alphabetically after save
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I create New Entries
+    Then they are alphabetized
+    And I reload the page
+    Then they are alphabetized
+
+  Scenario: Test how multi-line input appears
+    Given I am on the Advanced Course Settings page in Studio
+    When I create a JSON object
+    Then it is displayed as formatted
