Testing Mode

What is Testing Mode?

Testing Mode allows you to test Checkout Rules safely without affecting real customers or live checkout behavior.

When Testing Mode is enabled, your rule will still:

  • Run all conditions
  • Validate logic
  • Display test messages or behaviors

But it will NOT enforce any real action on the live checkout.

This helps you make sure everything works as expected before going live.


Why should you use Testing Mode?

Checkout Rules can directly impact:

  • Payment availability
  • Shipping methods
  • Discounts
  • Customer experience at checkout

Testing Mode helps you:

  • Test rules without blocking real payments
  • Avoid breaking checkout for real shoppers
  • Verify conditions, messages, and logic safely
  • Reduce risk before activating rules
