		$statuses[] = 'checkout-draft';
	}

Repeat these testing instructions with the following conditions:

1. Use a non-3DS card and make sure everything behaves the same.
2. Add a product to the draft order that has stock and make sure the stock management behaves in the following ways:
   • Stock is not reduced when the order is created (after step 11)
   • (For immediate capture) stock is reduced after payment (after step 13)
   • (For manual capture) stock is reduced after authorization (after step 20)
   • Tip: To add stock to a product go to Products, select any product, go to Inventory, toggle Manage stock? on, change Stock quantity to a positive number, and click Update.
