Beginners • Testing my GPIO pins on Raspi5

OK as much as I don't want to post this because its very new but.....
I have been plying around with building small projects kits I bought. I'm not sure anything is wrong but I did short out between 3v/grnd and since I'm an electrician and a electronics Noob Hobbyist know that's a bad thing.
I looked up how to test the GPIO Pins and finally found something that seems to work but I'm getting a error and the test just stops instead of checking all the pins.

Code:

 sudo apt install python3-gpiozero sudo pintest
After installing and running I get this ....

Code:

Proceed with test? [y/N] yTesting GPIO19...okTesting GPIO24...okTesting GPIO21...okTesting GPIO4...okpintest: error: 'GPIO busy' 
it stops so I'm not sure about any other pins. How can I continue to check the rest of the pins and is this error a bad thing? I have nothing attached to the Pins for testing purposes.
Very Much appreciate the advice and your time.
Thank you
