Hello! Yes, there shouldn't be anything blocking you from using test clocks with connect

[cyan bay]

is there a way to avoid using test clocks?

firing a webhook event with a custom body?

[solid anvil]

What specifically are you trying to test? Some flows are easily testable w/o test clocks, but some flows are much easier with clocks

[cyan bay]

basically i am trying to simulare invoice.created but with billing reason = subscription_cycle

[solid anvil]

Gotcha - so you should be able to test that by creating a Subscription with a very short trial length (just a couple of seconds)

[cyan bay]

ah, this doesn't seem possible

i get an error stating that trial length needs to be greater than 2 days

[solid anvil]

Are you using checkout? or something else to create the subscription?

[cyan bay]

checkout

[solid anvil]

Yeah then this won't work - you would have to create the subscription directly through the API (not with checkout)

[cyan bay]

ah ok

is there a reason checkout does not support this?

[solid anvil]

I think it was a product decision - it doesn't really make sense to have a trial period that could end before the Checkout session is completed, and could result in a lot of confused users

[cyan bay]

ah ok
