During my testing, I came across 13 bugs, from small interface quirks to big problems that affect how stores are managed and how users interact with the platform. To make things smoother for everyone, I suggest doing thorough testing on various browsers and devices. Using tools like Selenium for automated testing and doing thorough checks after every update will help catch and fix issues faster.
