> Follow one checkout job through project, suite, test, run, finding, and delivery.

Imagine Acme hired you to UAT their new checkout on staging. You would normally keep a sheet, a test account, screenshots, and a recap email.

Here is the same job in SimpleUAT.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Project">
    Create a project. Type: **web**. Name it something you and Acme both recognize, like "Acme checkout, Sep release."
  </Step>

  <Step title="Environment">
    Add **Staging** with `https://staging.acme.example` as the base URL. Mark it default if that is where you will test this week.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Suite and tests">
    Install **E-commerce Checkout** from **Test Suite Packs**, or create a suite named "Checkout" and add a case: "Guest can place an order with a valid card." After install, pack content is normal project content. Edit freely.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Persona (optional but useful)">
    Create **Guest shopper** under **Personas**. That is the "login as..." row you used to put in the sheet header.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Cycle">
    Create a cycle: "Checkout UAT, week of Sep 8." Attach staging, pick the checkout cases, set dates. Status starts as **draft**; make it **active** when you're ready.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run">
    **Start a run**. Work the case. On each step use **Pass**, **Fail**, **Blocked**, or **N/A**. Attach a PNG of the confirmation page when it works.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Finding">
    Payment declined with no message? Fail the step, file the issue when prompted, or **Log a finding** on **Findings**. Severity **major**, status **open**. That is the bug email you used to write.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Delivery">
    Connect Acme (Delivery ID, code, or invitation). Wait until the connection is **ACTIVE**. **Build delivery snapshot**, then **Deliver UAT**. They review in their inbox: accept, accept with known issues, not ready, or request retest.
  </Step>
</Steps>

You still tested. The platform organized the checklist, captured the run, stored the bug with evidence, and produced the client packet. You do not rebuild the spreadsheet to send results.
