Test your integration
[Step 7 of 8] Sandbox requests do not result in live transactions. Test your end-to-end workflow and downstream processes in Sandboxto make sure you’re handling both success and failure scenarios before going live. Note that to facilitate testingthe buyer experience in Sandbox does not always reflect the full buyer experience in Production. For examplein Sandbox you’ll have access to simulated payment methodswhich can be used to simulate different payment scenarios.
To get startedmake sure you have access to Amazon Pay Sandbox test buyer accounts. Then use simulated payment methods and simulation strings to test your integration.
1. Sandbox test buyer accounts
You must use Amazon Pay Sandbox accounts to complete transactions in the Sandbox environment. These accounts come pre-configured with simulated payment methods to help you mimic the buyer experience. You can also add shipping addressesif they’re needed to complete checkout.
2. Simulated payment methods
Amazon Pay Sandbox test buyer accounts come pre-configured with simulated payment methods that you can use to simulate different payment scenariossuch as payment declines and checkout abandonment. Use them to test your front-end integration. See Sandbox simulations to learn how to use simulated payment methods to test your integration.
3. Simulation strings
To simulate different responsespass simulation strings in your API request header. Use these strings to test your back-end integration. See Sandbox simulations.
