Overview and tutorial validation

It is important that the tutorials continue to work as the code develops. For each Frozen Release the tutorials should be rerun to check that this is so. Rather than work through all the individual tutorial pages this page just contains a list of commands that should run, with brief notes about what to expect and a link to the page from which each comes.
