Worldpay provides a Test Environment that enables you to test your installation. You can access the Test Environment by selecting it at the bottom of the Merchant Interface left-hand menu.
The Test Environment provides most of the features that are available in a Production Environment. When you submit transactions in a test environment, money is not transferred. You can therefore use both real card details and dummy test cards in a test environment.
When you initially integrate, the live Production Environment is not enabled for transactions so there is no risk of accidentally triggering a live transaction until you and Worldpay have agreed that you are ready to go live.
If you try to submit a live payment before you go live, you will receive an error message telling you that there are no appropriate accounts to process your payment.

You can also test your live Production Environment - also note that this is different to running in the Test Environment. For more information, please refer to Testing the Live Installation. |
