Testing environment

In order to test all scenarios in a testing environment, you can use the order amount to force the order status in the create payment response. For example, if the order amount is less than 5001, the order status will be "Published" and after a couple of minutes, it will change to "Collected". In the table below you can find other options.

Amount	Response status	Status change
Amount <= 5.000	Published	Collected
