Testing \[BETA\]

There are many different flows within Checkout depending on whether:

• What’s being booked is a Facility or a Session
• Whether it’s Free or Paid
• etc..

In order to test these within Authenticated Checkout, a number of special test values can be used in the Authenticated Checkout request.

If these are used, Authenticated Checkout enters “testing” mode. In this mode, you can use Authenticated Checkout exactly as you would in “live” mode. But when you press the book button, a payment will not actually be made and nothing will be booked.

However, a confirmation email will still be sent to the customer’s email address and the webhooks will be called appropriately.

In this way, you can test your integration with imin’s Authenticated Checkout without having to make an actual booking and spend money.

The Rules

• For “testing” mode to work, all possible parameters must have a special test value.
• You must use a Stripe test card number instead of a real card number e.g. 4242 4242 4242 4242. Any card number that you use will result in a successful booking.
