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.

Be sure to check the browser console as well as the WP debug log for errors. Make sure there is no ad blockers in your browser.
