TEMPORARY QA harness — abandoned-cart capture (SQU-761)
Embed = checkout-embed #166 preview (feature-checkout-contact-cap) ·
Backend = dev4.squadup.com · Event 1 “Test Event #1”, ticket “Guest fees” ($100).
Steps: pick a quantity → Checkout → on the Purchaser step type a
first name + email (last name optional) and wait ~1.5s. In DevTools → Network, watch for
POST /api/v3/shopping_carts/<session_id>/checkout_contact → 201/200.
You do not need to complete payment — abandoning after the email is the point.
Expected: the contact is saved the moment you’ve typed a first name + email.
About 10 minutes after you walk away, the cart expires and gets snapshotted as an abandoned cart.
The reminder email will not arrive on this dev box — sending is switched off there,
and the real reminder is on a 48-hour delay anyway. The email’s content can be reviewed separately.
