+      ### Clean stock testing
+      For bugs where Spotify behaves differently after applying SpotX-Bash, a valid comparison must use the **exact same Spotify version** before and after patching.
+
+      Run the automated cleanup from the [Troubleshooting guide](https://github.com/SpotX-Official/SpotX-Bash/wiki/Troubleshooting), reinstall Spotify, test the issue while Spotify is completely stock, then apply SpotX-Bash and test the same issue again.

+      Paste the cleanup command and its complete Terminal output from start to finish. This confirms that Spotify, app data and cache data were removed before the fresh stock test.
+
+      If SpotX-Bash fails **before it can patch Spotify** (for example, client/path detection or an installer error), enter `N/A` and explain why a stock-vs-patched test is not applicable.
+
+      You may replace your username/home-directory portion of paths with `$HOME`. Do not remove Spotify paths, errors or other information relevant to the issue.
