Elements Credit Card Testing

Robert Taulty
$organization

I would like to hear from organizations who have converted to Elements. Normally (with Transcend) we do what is instructed on page 3 of the Tessitura Payment Gateway Service Documentation which is:

"Switch Tessitura TEST to live Transactions"


This way we can make sure everything works with "real credit card numbers". In addition do the testing we need using our swipes and our Website.

On page 11 of the Tessitura Payment Gateway Documentation I read the following:

"By default the Element configuration has test credentials and a non-functioning URL in place. Please note that the credential supplied to you by Element can't be used in your TEST system"

 

How have other organizations who have moved to Elements Tested?

    There’s nothing that will technically prevent you from running real transactions in your test system, provided you have configured your test payment server to use the live element URL.

    The warning on page 11 just makes sure you realize that anything you do using the LIVE element URL is going to hit your gateway terminal, so you wouldn’t ever want to configure that on your TEST system EXCEPT temporarily for testing.

    The procedure for page 3 then is to open TIM on your test system, change the payment server URL and configuration to what you have been provided for LIVE, install, run a transaction on a REAL credit card using your TEST instance (making sure to refund or cancel authorization either in TEST or on your virtual terminal), and finally change the Payment server configuration BACK to the default testing URL that only accepts the 41111… card.
