You'll need to mock api responses from Stripe. We don't support/encourage automated tests directly against our api. Instead, we recommend folks mock the responses

#

I'm really confused now. You have a whole site about testing against Your API, what parameters to pass to get specific response and test api keys.

#

Can you link the page you're on?

#

AFAIK we don't provide an automated way to test CheckoutSession flows

https://stripe.com/docs/testing

Testing

Simulate payments to test your integration.

weak fjord Mar 2, 2023, 4:39 PM

#

Yeah that's for running your integration in test mode

#

And manually testing flows

#

Not automated testing

Then I guess You need to have a chat with folks at Laravel about their recommendation:
https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/billing#testing

Laravel - The PHP Framework For Web Artisans

Laravel is a PHP web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We’ve already laid the foundation — freeing you to create without sweating the small things.

#

Oh

#

I'll flag this to someone thanks

#

That's a third party integration, so they're not affiliated with us

toxic juniper Mar 2, 2023, 4:45 PM

#

I reckon. Still, no info on Your site made me think that's for manual testing.

#

As I am looking specifically for it not there's a recommendation to use mocks, but for load testing.

weak fjord Mar 2, 2023, 4:46 PM

#

https://stripe.com/docs/testing is for manual testing

Testing

Simulate payments to test your integration.

#

"As an alternative, we recommend building integrations so that they have a configurable system for mocking out requests to the Stripe API, which can be enabled for load tests."

#

Follows from this statement, that aside from load testing, the recommendation is not to mock.

#

So You should make this a way more clear.

#

This is good feedback

#

Thanks

#

But yeah the issue with automated testing is it can contribute to rate limits, so generally we do discourage it

toxic juniper Mar 2, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

Well, I'll see what I can do. Seems I have to resolve to mocking for Session Checkouts anyway.

#

Thanks for Your help!

weak fjord Mar 2, 2023, 4:49 PM

#

Yeah the issue with Checkout is it does require a lot of manual intervention
