- Click "Set up" on the WooCommerce Payments card. The WooCommerce Payments plugin should be installed and activated automatically, and you should be automatically redirected to `wordpress.com/jetpack/connect/authorize...` to complete WooCommerce Payments setup.
- There's no need to test it any further than that, since the rest of the connection and setup process is part of the WooCommerce Payments plugin and has been tested independently.
## New WooCommerce Home section
## New WooCommerce Home Screen
One of the main new features in WooCommerce 4.3 is the addition of a new **Home Screen** that is displayed when clicking on the primary WooCommerce menu item in wp-admin. Existing sites will still have the **Analytics Dashboard** shown when clicking on the WooCommerce menu item - so the same behavior that has existed in WooCommerce since 4.0. Existing sites will have to opt-in to the new Home Screen experience, and new sites will have it turned on be default.
### Test Flow 1: Fresh Install of WooCommerce 4.3
To prepare for this test flow, please setup a **new site** with WooCommerce 4.3
1. Install and activate WooCommerce 4.3, and proceed to the Onboarding Profile Wizard.
2. Complete the onboarding wizard, feel free to choose any options as it doesn't impact the testing of the home screen.
3. After you complete the onboarding wizard, you will be redirected to the new **Home Screen**

### Test Flow 2: Upgrade from 4.2
For sites that are upgrading to 4.3 from a prior version of WooCommerce, the home screen is not enabled by default. This test flow will verify the opt-in to the new home screen functions as expected.
To complete this step, you will need to have a site that is already setup running WooCommerce 4.2.
1. On your WooCommerce 4.2 install, click on the WooCommerce menu item, note that it displays the **Analytics Dashboard**:

2. Using the [WooCommerce Beta Tester plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-beta-tester/), you can now easily update to the latest version of WooCommerce 4.3 ( beta or RC )
3. After the update has applied, click on the WooCommerce link in the wp-admin sidebar. Verify that you are still shown the Analytics Dashboard ( see above ).
4. Navigate to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced > Features ( `/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-settings&tab=advanced&section=features` ) and enable/check the box for "Home Screen", and click "Save Changes":

5. Note after the page loads upon form submission, the first link under the WooCommerce menu should say "Home":

6. Click on Home, and verify the new Home Screen is shown.
7. Click on the Analytics menu item, and verify the Analytics Overview screen is shown.
### Testing Homescreen Functionality
Using either of the flows above, with the home screen active, you can also test the following items.
#### Stats Overview
On the right side of the home screen you will see the new **Stats Overview** section.
![](https://cldup.com/TM-cJnZt9w-2000x2000.png)
1. The first feature to test here is to click on the ellipsis menu in the header area, and toggle "Net Sales" to the on position:
![](https://cldup.com/IjRZ0CKRPj-3000x3000.png)
2. After toggling "Net Sales", verify that it is shown along with "Total Sales" and "Orders" in the Stats Overview section now.
3. Do a full browser refresh on this page.
4. Verify your selection to display "Net Sales" has been persisted, and is still shown.
5. Next interact with the date range tabs at the top of the section:

6. If you have no sales data for these periods, it might be hard to notice the difference here, but note that the loading indicator happens as the time period is changed.
7. Click on "Week to Date".
8. Then click on "Total Sales". Note that this will open the Revenue Report, with the "Total Sales" chart selected, along with setting the date range to Week to Date:

![](https://cldup.com/rktpsjewGv-3000x3000.png)
1. Open the home screen.
2. Hide the Setup Checklist if visible to expose the Store Management section.
3. Interact with each link in the Store Management section.
4. Verify the links send you to the correct location.
