Testing subscription and payment gateway


Recommended Posts

I wonder how can I test new subscription and payment gateway.

  • There is no group restriction for the subscription, so that I cannot create one just for test and special group
  • I cannot restrict the payment method to special user group only
  • I cannot test on test server as the payment provider does not allow other domains (only live)
  • If I overcome the previous, I still cannot test on test server as the payment interface should be accessible publicly and test installation must be protected by .htaccess
  • I cannot use the constant \IPS\NEXUS_TEST_GATEWAYS on live server as it applies to every payment method 

Any idea of how to create a test subscription with test payment gateway without allowing normal users to use them?

I would not use a payments processor that does not allow for standard testing practices. Can you change your "live" domain with the processor, such that you set your domain to test.example.com and then once your testing is complete put it back?

I would not also, but a client wants 😄

Not with this payment provider. Every domain should be publicly accessible, and it takes a week or more till the domain is approved 🙈
