Introduction
Pay-Jet Cockpit supports testing of your implementation before going live. Three different operating modes are supported.
Please ensure that you only use test data in test mode and live data only in productive / live mode.
| Production / Live | Test-System (Downstream) | Simulation | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Description | This is the live / productive operation where all payments are forwarded live to the connected service provider (e.g. acquirer, bank, scheme, downstream service provider). These payment transactions are carried out in real life. | In this mode, payment transactions are forwarded to a downstream test system. This is not available for all payment methods and is noted in the corresponding payment method documentation. | In this mode all payment processes within Pay-Jet Cockpit are simulated. This mode is available for all payment types.
|
| Data to use | Only valid productive data | Dedicated test data - see test data overview below | Any "valid" test data (i.e.: Credit card numbers must pass LUHN-check, IBANs must pass IBAN-check, email-address must be syntactically correct) |
| Reaction / Response | The behavior and responses of the API correspond to live operation. | The behavior and responses of the API depend on specific test data which are documented for the specific payment method. | The behavior and responses of the API depend on the "OrderDesc" parameter, where you specify the desired response code yourself (e.g. "Test: 0000" or "Test: 0305") |
| Possible actions | Authorization Reverse Capture Credit | Authorization Reverse Capture Credit | Authorization Reverse Capture Credit |
| Supported interfaces | PaySSL PayNow Direct Batch Analytics → virtual terminal Analytics → batch-file | PaySSL PayNow Direct | PaySSL PayNow Direct |
| CTSF / Settlement / Reporting / Dashboard |  |  | |
| Additional remarks |
This mode is always available - even if the payment method has been activated for "live". You can also force a simulation in live operation at any time by assigning the "OrderDesc" parameter with a value such as "Test: <nnnn>".
