Model each purchasable combination

Treat a variant as a real purchasable record with its own attributes, identifier, offer, image, and stock state. A color or size label alone is not sufficient.

Review the live product template, every installed commerce app, and representative catalog states rather than assuming the platform default remains unchanged.

Look for silent parent-child mismatches

Check whether the selected option changes the structured offer, visible price, image, SKU, availability, and URL state. Common defects expose parent data after the shopper selects a child variant.

Verify reproducible selection

Where practical, ensure the chosen variant can be revisited through a stable URL or deterministic state. Test browser refresh, link sharing, and direct entry.

Sample edge cases

Include unavailable combinations, price-changing options, duplicate labels, missing images, and variants introduced by a recent import. Keep a known-good fixture for release testing.
