PayPal Payment Test

[wivelden]

I have been trying to do a test payment using the sandbox site on Paypal but I cant get it to work.
Can anyone give me a guide on how to use the test mode on virtuemart and do a transaction test so I can see everything works as it should please?

this should help http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=39584.0
otherwise some more info would be great (eg how you have configured things, where is it failing etc.)

Yea I found that thread after posting this. However paypal keeps asking me to login to the developer site even though I am. I have heard other people having trouble with this too.

I too get that message occasionally. So I open another browser tab, log into the developer site and then everthing works fine. I guess that as long as a valid browser session is maintained for the developer site transactions occur without probs.

Now see thats what I do and I can login to the test customer account fine but it wont let me login to the business account to check that.

do you mean to the developer portal? https://developer.paypal.com/

Yea it keeps asking me to login to the developer portal even when I try to login to the business test paypal account I created in the sandbox.
