Spreedly Test gateway guide
Additional notes |
---|
Spreedly’s Test gateway allows you to use a number of test cards to help you verify your integration. Any card not in the list of test cards is considered a real credit card and will fail when using a Test gateway. Review Test data for the list. If you’d like to use a real credit card (a card not listed in the list of test cards), then your Spreedly account must be upgraded to a paid account. |
Adding a Spreedly Test gateway
The test gateway is simple to add as there are no required credentials.
curl https://core.spreedly.com/v1/gateways.xml \
-u 'C7cRfNJGODKh4Iu5Ox3PToKjniY:4UIuWybmdythfNGPqAqyQnYha6s451ri0fYAo4p3drZUi7q2Jf4b7HKg8etDtoKJ' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/xml' \
-d '<gateway>
<gateway_type>test</gateway_type>
</gateway>'
This call will give you a gateway token you can use for all test transactions.

Testing Capture and Credit with the test gateway
To test an authorize
with the test gateway, you can use one of the test credit cards in Test data. On the test gateway, both the capture
operation and the credit
operation always succeed unless you use an amount of 44 cents. The test gateway knows that amount and returns a failure in that case to allow you to test your handling of capture and credit failures.
Offsite gateway testing using the test gateway
If you’re using an offsite gateway, there’s a step in the process when your customer gets redirected to the offsite gateway’s site to actually pay. When you’re using the Test Gateway and the Sprel payment method, your customer gets redirected to a special UI on the Spreedly site. From there, you can trigger a number of different error conditions directly through the UI.
There’s a point though, before you redirect your customer offsite, that you need to initiate a purchase transaction which under the hood talks to the remote gateway to know the actual url you need to redirect your customer to. And of course, it’s possible for this process to fail.
If you’re using the Test Gateway and Sprel, you can simulate this type of error by specifying an amount of 44 cents.
If you’re using the Test Gateway and Sprel and you’d like to test delayed payments that take some time to settle (like ACHs), then you can use the Test Gateway’s api call to settle transactions.
