Write expectations before running the test
A test only helps if you know what should happen. Define whether a digital send is meant to affect fulfillment, which item it should affect, and which physical states must remain unchanged. Include any warehouse or shipping integration that reacts to Shopify events.
QuickAttach documents optional fulfillment alongside delivery. The exact interaction with your store's products and integrations must be verified in that store. This article provides a proposed regression plan; no scenarios have been executed or passed here.
Five-scenario matrix
| Scenario | Action | Inspect |
|---|---|---|
| Digital only | Send a checked demonstration file | File access, message, intended fulfillment state |
| Physical plus digital | Send digital output before dispatch | Physical item and shipping queue remain appropriate |
| Partial digital readiness | Send only the ready item | Unready item is not presented as delivered |
| Physical dispatch first | Deliver the custom file later | Parcel record remains accurate and messages are distinct |
| Cancellation or hold | Attempt the intended staff workflow after a hold | Staff recognizes the hold and avoids unauthorized delivery |
The cancellation case tests your operating procedure, not a claimed automatic app block. Document what staff must check manually if the application does not enforce the desired rule.
A synthetic test fixture
Use demo customer “Training Buyer,” a harmless PDF labeled “DEMO,” and fictional order references beginning with TEST. Include two distinguishable digital assets so an accidental partial-send mix-up is visible. Do not use a real customer email, private file, or production shipment to make the test realistic.
Capture enough evidence to diagnose failures
- Starting order state and relevant settings.
- Exact action taken and selected item.
- Resulting order and fulfillment state.
- Customer-facing email and enabled page behavior.
- Any downstream warehouse or shipping event.
- Observed result, expected result, and unresolved issue.
Record only sanitized screenshots and notes. If a scenario fails, keep the evidence and pause that workflow until the cause is understood. Re-run affected scenarios after a configuration change rather than declaring success from one unrelated send.
Use the walkthrough to identify the delivery stages and support for questions about unexpected behavior. Assign a release owner who can decide whether the tested results meet your store's requirements.
