Shopwarden – Automated WooCommerce monitoring & testing

Shopwarden has given us peace of mind to enable auto-updates for all our e-commerce sites. Previously our process was:

- clone to staging
- upgrade plugins
- test manually
- run a backup
- reproduce steps on production

Now our process is:

- enable auto updates
- enable auto backups using Updraft
- enable Shopwarden

Sleep easy, because we know Shopwarden can run all the tests we would usually do manually in the past.

With the way the WordPress ecosystem is being attacked at the moment, not having auto-updates enabled is no longer an option, and Shopwarden takes care of the rest.

A life saver

Make sure your WooCommerce store is fully operational. Shopwarden automatically monitors your store's uptime, important user flows and Wordpress  …

This plugin provides an easy way to get involved with beta testing WordPress.
Once installed it will enable you to upgrade your website to the latest Nightly, Beta, or Release Candidate at the click of a button using the built in upgrader.
By default once enabled it switches your website onto the point release update channel.
For the more adventurous there is the option to switch to the bleeding edge (trunk) of development.
Don’t forget to backup before you start!
Please enable auto-updates for this plugin to ensure future changes are properly handled with core updates.
<h3>Extra Settings</h3>
There is a setting to Skip successful autoupdate emails. It functions to disable sending emails to the admin user for successful autoupdates. Only emails indicating failures of the autoupdate process are sent.
There is a setting to Skip bundled plugins and themes. It functions to disable the installation of any plugins or themes that are bundled with the Core update.

WordPress Beta Tester

This plugin works great, as advertised.

A lot of people complain that you can't revert the DB changes. I bet (hope) that they are not plugin developers. The plugin warns you about this. You are meant to keep a backup of your site first. If you are testing in a container such as docker or a VM, then it's even easier.

This highlights the issue that user reviews are not always reliable. A lot of users click on plugins and run arbitrary code on their sites without even reading the readme, then they come here and complain. Makes you wonder if there should be a feature on this site for users to rate the usefulness of reviews. Oh well, I'm getting side-tracked!

Anyway, thanks for a great plugin.


Must-have for any theme or plugin developer

When I activated my plugins page returns 503: Server runs out of time. Deactivated this plugin and all back to normal. Not recommended for 4.8.3!

Not recommended for 4.8.3

Great plugin to install beta releases for testing plugins and themes.
It would be helpful to see information about version numbers which will be installed.


Great for testing beta releases but missing information about version numbers


This is just brilliant. It allows anyone to test out the beta and see if everything works - Nice work here! I only found out about this from the WPBUILDS podcast - needs more promotion - its fantastic! 


What a fantastic facility!


As a plugin developer, I need this extension to be able to test my plugin against future versions before the officiale release.


Mandatory for a plugin developer!


Seems to work as expected. Great tool to test plugins before release and ensure they are compatible with the next Wordpress release. So thank you for the plugin. 


Great tool


Perfect for developers to test plugins with new versions of WP. 


Working great

Allows you to easily upgrade for testing the next versions of WordPress.
