Subscriptions in depth
Every control and text of Payments > Subscriptions and New subscription.
Every control and text this screen shows, in screen order. The list is read from the demo by a crawl, and CI fails when the screen changes without its entry here.
Payments > Subscriptions tests renewals, failed renewal payments and cancellations, each subscription on its own clock.

The numbers match the entries below. The picture shows the first screenful; controls further down, and texts, have no marker.
