Theme Menu Overlay Bug Reporter
The Opportunity
A merchant-focused storefront QA app that detects theme interaction bugs like lingering menu overlays, broken hover states, and header rendering issues before customers see them. It helps merchants validate theme behavior across browsers and devices without needing to debug code manually.
"The merchant is seeing a visual/UI bug in the Horizon theme where dropdown interactions leave an overlay on the page, creating a broken shopping experience."
