Testing Paypal

The paypal sandbox works just like regular paypal (with transactions and everything)
|
| 4 |
except no actual money gets transferred. It allows you to create mock accounts (seller
|
| 5 |
and buyer) and create transactions between them.

1. Sign up for an account at developer.paypal.com, receive the activation e-mail and
|
| 8 |
activate the account
|
| 9 |
2. Log in, go to "test accounts" and create a business (seller) account and personal
|
| 10 |
(buyer) account.
|

3. In whichever module you're using that uses simple_paypal, set the paypal e-mail
|
| 12 |
address to your business account e-mail address.
|
| 13 |
4. In /admin/settings/paypal, be sure to select the paypal sandbox URL.
|
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
That's it. When a transaction has been completed, paypal should send a POST request to
|
| 16 |
the URL specified at the 'notify_url' variable.
