Sandbox results

[dbstamps20]

Hello, I am new to Authorize.Net sandbox but no new to payment processing.

I am using the SDK-AuthorizeNetDPM and submitted one of the test cc numbers.

The response is:

Authorization failed.
Error code: 1
(TESTMODE) This transaction has been approved.

This seems to be a mixed message - ie how can a transaction received both a failed and an approved message?

If it is a test(sandbox) account, turn testmode off on the merchant account.

Then re-test it.

I have a sandbox developer account which has been set to TestMode.

Are you saying I can continue sending test cards with my developer account with TestMode off?

What is the point of TestMode?

I am used to NPC and PAYPAL and their Sandbox modes function just as real time processing.

There is no point for testmode on the test account. But since they want to mirror what is on the production, they have it on the test account too.

The test/sandbox account do not go to the processor at all, it just simulate what it might response. And you need trigger to test other response.
