Quick question regarding your recommended best practices for testing order flow without staging servers

Used to be able to use a test credit card, on staging but now its all production...

Hey Greg,

You should actually still be able to use sandbox.delivery.com. We just don't have an SLA for it. Your production keys should work.

thanks for the quick reply Tim, couple follow ups. just want to be clear before i go about switching configs back out to staging servers and what not...

really? ok... without any SLA my question is how out of sync is the data? will i run into issues if i dev against staging and then switch to prod...

additionally do you wipe user data? is my prod user going to exist on staging?

Your prod user *should* exist on staing. But yes, the data can be periodically wiped out. When we do that, we usually dump a copy of production into staging though.
