General Testing

For compatibility and general smoke testing

Prereqs:

• Configured WooCommerce with products, and a valid payment processor (dev Stripe, or cash on delivery option in WC Settings > Payments) so that you can complete checkout.
• Recommended (you can also check the requests manually tho) to use a debugger tool like Google Analytics Debugger Extension or Tag Assistant (official)

⚠️ Be sure to check the browser console as well as the WP debug log for errors. ⚠️ Make sure there are no Ad blockers in your browser. ⚠️ For testing the tracking try in incognito without being logged in
