Solution
Here is a practical approach: build a repeatable attendance test set with the office center, doorway, radius edge, outside point, branch entrance, and approved field site. A test employee account can then compare the mobile check-in button, employee-facing prompt, backend attendance record, and WLOC diagnostics. The workflow verifies the company's own policy and audit trail; it is not a substitute for real attendance or HR approval.
Problem
Attendance QA breaks down at the places employees actually stand: the lobby turnstile, the front door, the floor above the office, a branch counter, a customer site, or the exact meter where the radius changes from valid to invalid. Admin screens can show a clean radius, but they do not reveal whether the employee app says late, out of range, stale location, field approval required, or refresh needed at those edge points.
Use WLOC in 3 steps
Save the desk area, lobby, doorway, radius edge, outside point, branch counter, and approved field site instead of relying on one company address.
Open the target app at each saved point and record available, late, out-of-range, stale-location, field-approval, and refresh-needed states.
Keep screenshots, account state, attendance logs, coordinates, and WLOC diagnostics together, then put the device back to its real location.
Important boundary
WLOC is not a jailbreak. The current testing Profile includes a certificate and a VPN tunnel, and it does not require a separate third-party VPN client. Saving a target, Gateway acceptance, or a submitted Restore does not mean the target app adopted the location or that the device is already restored. WLOC does not promise to override every app's permissions, cache, or anti-cheat checks.
