Testing

Nothing blocks you from testing with a live card, but we recommend using the Zūm Rails Test Institution.

  • If you are using the Connector without a javascript library, you must specify the parameter testinstitution=true in the url.
  • If you are using the javascript library, you must pass the property testinstitution:true in the config parameter.

By doing the configuration above, the first institution on the list will be Zūm Rails Test Institution.

Other currencies#

Considering all options above, the balance simulated for the account will be using Canadian Dollar as currency, we can allow Zūm Rails Test Institution to support balance information with another currency such as Euro or US Dollar.

Force Insights Transactions Categorization#

This option forces the Aggregation process to trigger categorization for Insights using the Zūm Rails Test Institution. It allows testing how transactions will be categorized by the Categorization service in a non-production environment. If the customer has configured the Insights webhook, it may be triggered with either a "Failed" or "Completed" event, depending on the categorization result. Please ensure that the aggregation request has the variable GetTransactions set to true.

Simulate Insights Categorization Error#

This option simulates a transaction categorization failure within the Insights process, following the standard path without a security question. If the customer has configured the Insights Failed webhook, this username can be used to trigger the failure simulation. Please ensure that the aggregation request has the variable GetTransactions set to true.
