What happens here

Turn on the water at the kitchen faucet and allow the sink to fill partially. While the water is running, carefully inspect the repaired joint under the sink for any drips or leaks. Once the sink is partially filled, remove the stopper and allow the water to drain. Again, carefully inspect the repaired joint. Repeat the process of filling and draining the sink multiple times to ensure the seal holds under continuous flow and pressure changes. Confirm that no leaks are present after several tests.

Goal: After reassembly, perform a series of leak tests by running and draining water in the sink to verify the repair was successful.
