Send a test email

Before the full send, email a test version to me and to Priya in content on Thursday by noon. Use three test addresses that represent a Gmail inbox, an Outlook desktop, and an iPhone Mail app. Confirm that links, images, personalization and the unsubscribe link all work, and note any rendering issues.

Make the test email make approvals fast. Include a screenshot of how the message appears on desktop and mobile, report missing alt text and any links that go to staging instead of production, and list any merge tags left unresolved. Highlight one issue that would make a reviewer hold the send.

My test email looked fine on desktop but the mobile preview stacked blocks badly and the CTA was off-screen. I’m worried we’ll lose clicks and trigger complaints. I don’t know which content block or CSS is causing it or whether it affects only certain devices. What quick diagnostic pinpoints the offending block, what immediate fix gets the CTA visible, and how do I rerun a focused test before Friday?

We keep sending after quick tests and later find rendering problems across clients. That creates rework and small but recurring revenue loss. Suggest a standard testing checklist for desktop, mobile, and major clients, one small automation or workflow to capture screenshots automatically, and a required approval gate so nothing goes live without these checks.
