To facilitate end-to-end testing, clients can utilize pre-production dashboard application configured for this purpose.
We have now introduced a new feature, which allows the Stripe Cards integration within the Production dashboard to use test credentials, making it possible to perform comprehensive payment processing and checkout testing.
This setting can only be enabled by Piano support. Please reach out to support@piano.io to request the activation.
Once enabled, you can ensure that all payment-related processes (subscription renewals, email notifications, checkout, my account) are thoroughly tested and validated in a pre-production environment, ensuring a smoother transition to live operations.
This is particularly useful for:
-
Verifying your customized templates and flows work seamlessly with payment processing in a controlled environment.
-
Ensuring that all aspects of application configuration function correctly before going live.
-
Conducting thorough testing including subscription and transaction management actions without the need for real financial transactions, enabling a cost-effective testing solution.
This feature is exclusively available for Stripe. At this time, similar capabilities are not possible for other payment providers.
