CheckView – Form & Checkout Testing

Description

Websites rarely fail loudly. Forms stop submitting. Leads disappear. Emails never send. Checkout buttons break quietly in the background. These issues often go unnoticed until sales or leads are lost.

CheckView automatically tests your WordPress forms on a schedule, using real browser sessions to verify that submissions complete successfully, emails are sent, and integrations work as expected. It also supports testing logins, carts, and WooCommerce checkout flows.

Built specifically for WordPress and WooCommerce, CheckView helps site owners, developers, and agencies detect problems early and resolve them faster, without writing code or setting up complex testing infrastructure.

Works Well With

CheckView works well with popular WordPress form and eCommerce plugins including Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Fluent Forms, Ninja Forms, Formidable Forms, WS Form, and WooCommerce.

Important

This plugin requires an active CheckView account. The plugin can be installed and activated without an account, but automated testing features are only available once the site is connected to the CheckView platform.

FAQ

Do I need a CheckView account?

Yes. A CheckView account is required to enable automated testing features. The plugin alone does not perform testing without being connected to the platform.

Which form plugins does CheckView support?

CheckView supports automated testing for many popular WordPress form plugins, including WS Form, WPForms, Ninja Forms, Gravity Forms, Formidable Forms, Contact Form 7, and Fluent Forms.

If my preferred form plugin is not listed, can I still use CheckView?

Yes. CheckView can still be used with other form plugins, though validation may be more limited and some manual setup may be required using the test flow editor. Our support team is available to help ensure your tests are configured correctly.

Support continues to expand and CheckView is designed to adapt to custom themes and form configurations using customizable test flows.

Can CheckView test WooCommerce checkout flows?

Yes. CheckView is designed to automatically generate test flows for standard WooCommerce product, cart, and checkout pages, allowing sites to be tested for add-to-cart functionality and the full checkout process.

CheckView can safely test payment gateways using its built-in dummy checkout method or by leveraging Stripe in test mode, ensuring checkout functionality is validated without processing real transactions.

Can I use CheckView to test logins, learning management systems, or specific user flows?

Yes. CheckView can be used to test a wide range of user flows, including logins, learning management systems, and other custom interactions. These tests may require manual configuration, but CheckView provides powerful assertion support to validate specific actions, messages, and outcomes throughout the flow.

Does CheckView replace uptime monitoring?

No. CheckView complements uptime monitoring.

Uptime monitoring checks whether a site is online. CheckView verifies that critical actions, such as form submissions and checkout flows, actually work. A site can be online while forms or checkout are broken. CheckView is designed to catch those silent failures.

Will automated tests affect real users or create real orders?

No. CheckView is designed to run safely in the background.

Form data and test orders are automatically handled and cleaned up after each test. No real customer data is stored, and test activity is isolated from real users.

Does CheckView work with CAPTCHA and anti-spam plugins?

Yes. CheckView includes compatibility handling for common CAPTCHA and anti-spam solutions, including honeypots, Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, Cloudflare Turnstile, WP Armour, Akismet, OOPSpam, CleanTalk and popular security plugins such as Solid Security and WordFence.

These protections are safely bypassed during automated tests while remaining active for real visitors.

Do I need to write code or configure scripts?

No. CheckView is a no-code solution.

Most sites can connect and start testing with a single click. Custom test flows can be adjusted visually without writing code.

Can I use CheckView on multiple websites?

Yes. CheckView is built for agencies and site owners managing multiple WordPress websites. All connected sites can be monitored from a single dashboard.

What happens when a test fails?

When a test fails, CheckView records the failure, captures logs and a video replay, and sends an alert so you can see exactly where and why the issue occurred.

Does this slow down my site?

No. CheckView runs tests externally using real browser sessions and does not add load to normal visitor traffic. Tests are executed on a schedule and are designed to have minimal impact on site performance.

Can I pause or schedule tests?

Yes. Tests can be scheduled to run automatically, and you can pause or adjust test schedules at any time through the CheckView dashboard.

Is this suitable for staging or production sites?

Yes. CheckView can be used on both staging and production environments. Many users run tests in production to ensure real-world functionality, while others use staging for pre-release validation.

Does CheckView work with custom themes?

Yes. CheckView is designed to work with custom WordPress themes. Test flows can be adjusted to match custom layouts, selectors, and user flows using our visual step editor, allowing testing to align with how your site is built.

What data does CheckView store during tests?

CheckView runs tests externally. Temporary test data created on your site (such as test entries or test orders) is cleaned up after each run. CheckView does not store customer personal data as part of testing.

Where do I get support?

Support and test configuration are handled through the CheckView platform. Please visit CheckView for documentation and support resources.

We really love using CheckView. It has become part of our daily routine because it just works and lets us breathe easier. We use it for automated testing of forms, and it has helped us reduce a lot of manual work. That has been a huge time saver for the team and it shows up in our results. Setup was straightforward and the first wins came quickly. The tests feel like real users, so when something breaks we get clear evidence with enough detail to reproduce and fix it. That means fewer surprises, fewer late night scrambles, and more confidence when we ship changes. What stands out just as much as the product is the people behind it. The support is outstanding. Matt deserves a special mention. He is kind, quick to respond, and always open to hear us. Every conversation feels like talking to someone who genuinely cares about our success. Overall, CheckView gives us reliable coverage on the forms that matter, saves us a lot of time, and is backed by a team that we trust. We are very happy with it and plan to keep it at the center of our quality checks.

As an SEO and PPC agency, conversions are everything and that means every form, lead submission, and checkout needs to work 100% of the time. CheckView has completely changed how we monitor that. It automatically tests and alerts us when forms fail, ensuring we never lose leads due to plugin updates, server changes, or integration issues. The visual reports, screenshots, and videos make fixing problems simple. CheckView has become an essential part of our QA and analytics workflow across all client sites.

I can’t recommend Checkview and its team enough. This powerful product has proactively alerted me to numerous issues on my clients’ sites, saving me from potential problems. What truly sets them apart is their support team; they are incredibly responsive and have always quickly resolved any issues I’ve had, even when they were due to my own user errors. This plugin is an essential tool for any professional.

We’re a law firm and rely on our WordPress site for new client inquiries and appointment scheduling so our forms are pretty crucial for our business. We’re not super technical, so when we started running into random issues with our Gravity Forms, our agency suggested we try CheckView even though they hadn’t used it yet. CheckView has been pretty awesome overall. It automatically checks our site forms daily. We figured out it could also be used for checking our client portal login and restricted content, although that was a bit more work to setup. It already caught a form that broke after a plugin update which was huge and paid for itself. We had no idea anything was wrong until the test flagged it. I will note it did require some step adjustments on one of our lead forms which failed to generate at first, but the support team was super helpful and setup the rest of the form when we ran into that. Definitely recommend if you want to have an automatic way to test your forms and rely on forms for your sales revenue!

Just can’t say enough good about Checkview and their team. This product has alerted me to multiple issues on my clients’ sites. And anytime I’ve had issues with the product (usually a user error configuration), the support team is SUPER responsive and always gets the issue fixed right up. Get this plugin.

We are a 5 years old web agency working exclusively with WordPress. Broken forms can cost our clients even tens of thousands of euros, so we already had some automations set up. However, after studying CheckView, we could see that this tool outperforms any external automation tools, since we won’t have to clog the database with submissions, or even send own test emails. The most noticeable detail however has been Matt’s support. He has been incredibly kind and patient on our case, always providing complete answers. He even made sure that our complex e-commerce configuration would work for a client, and accommodated a feature for an iframe based payment system. I see a bright future with this tool, and know our agency will be running with it as long as we stay in the business. It’s just that good.
