+Feature: Page displaying with secure layout
+  In order to securely perform tasks
+  As a student
+  I need not to be able to exit the page using the header logo
+
+  Background:
+    # Get to the fixture page.
+    Given the following "courses" exist:
+      | fullname | shortname | format |
+      | Course 1 | C1        | topics |
+    And the following "activities" exist:
+      | activity   | name | intro                                                               | course | idnumber |
+      | label      | L1   | <a href="../lib/tests/fixtures/securetestpage.php">Fixture link</a> | C1     | label1   |
+
+  Scenario: Confirm that there is no header link
+    Given I log in as "admin"
+    And I am on "Course 1" course homepage
+    When I follow "Fixture link"
+    Then I should see "Acceptance test site" in the "nav" "css_element"
+    But "Acceptance test site" "link" should not exist
