Checkout Truth tool

Shopify Checkout and Payment Path Test

Use this smoke test when Shopify shows sessions, add to cart, reached checkout, or abandoned checkout activity but completed orders are missing. Collect the facts before changing ads, theme layout, or pricing.

What the first output should tell you

Clean boundary

This tool does not guarantee orders or gateway approval. It organizes checkout evidence so the next audit or Fix Pack starts from facts.
