Best used in **local** or **staging** environments where you frequently test emails, checkout flows, or need to clean up database content without touching production. **Modules:** * **Emails** — Configure SMTP, log and preview outgoing emails, send test emails. * **Auto-Fill** — Fill the WooCommerce checkout with random user data on every click. Supports classic and Blocks checkout. * **Downloader** — Download any installed plugin or theme as a .zip, or export the WooCommerce sample products CSV. * **Database** — Inspect and clean up post types, database options, transients, post meta, and user meta. * **Test Data** — Generate and delete test users, WooCommerce orders, and coupons. * **Tools** — View and trigger cron jobs, tail log files, inspect PHP constants, view server info, and choose whether deleting the plugin removes its data. ### External services * **RandomUser.me** (`https://randomuser.me/api/`) — used by the Auto-Fill module to generate random placeholder user data for the checkout. The request is made only when the module is enabled and a visitor clicks the autofill button. No personal or site data is sent. Service terms and privacy policy: https://randomuser. me/ ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/yuva-testing-utilities/` 2. Activate the plugin from **Plugins Installed Plugins** 3. Open **Tools Testing Utilities** ## FAQ ### Is this plugin meant for production? It can run on production but is primarily designed for **development and staging** environments. ### Does this plugin send any data externally? One feature does: **Auto-Fill** calls RandomUser.me to fetch placeholder user data, and only while that module is enabled. No personal or site data is sent, and it falls back to locally generated data when the service is unreachable. Nothing else in the plugin contacts the internet — the WooCommerce sample products CSV is read from the copy of WooCommerce already installed on your site. ### Why does the plugin require WordPress 6.2? The plugin uses the `%i` (identifier) placeholder in `$wpdb->prepare()`, introduced in WordPress 6.2, to safely parameterise table and column names. ### Who can use the plugin? Any administrator (`manage_options`). This is a developer toolkit, so access is intentionally not restricted beyond that. If you do want it locked down further, filter `yutu_required_capability`. ### The Database module edited an option and something broke. Why? Option and meta values are edited as plain text. If the stored value was a serialised array or object, saving it as text replaces the structure with a string. Only edit values you know are scalar, and always on a site you can restore. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Yuva Testing Utilities” is open source software.
