It was interesting not to miss the solutions of such a test equation  x * (1 + 1.0001 * sin (x ^ 2)) = 0 on a fairly large arbitrary segment using NextZero.
It turned out that NextZero skips solutions.
For example, solutions in the range from 7.5 to 10 are skipped.  And two more specific solutions skipped 21.232154952 and 21.232821004.
I took Digits to help, but it didn't affect anything. Most likely the reason is that I am a bad user.  The example seems to be a good one.
 

restart: 
#Digits := 30; 
f := proc (x) options operator, arrow; x*(1+1.0001*sin(x^2)) end proc; 
RootFinding:-NextZero(f, 1.0): 
for j to 154 do RootFinding:-NextZero(f, %) end do
