Test your Klarna integration by following the steps for each of the cases below. If a test case or a step doesn't apply to your store, for example, you don't offer partial refunds, skip the test case.

The cases cover 4 main stages of the order lifecycle:

1. In the purchase stage, the customer adds items to the cart, proceeds to checkout, and places an order, either in the full amount or with a discount. While testing, you perform the steps in this stage. In real-life scenarios, your customer does so.
2. In the pre-shipment stage, you cancel orders that can't be fulfilled.
3. In the shipment stage, you ship the items to the customer, as well as capture the items in your system and in Klarna.
4. In the post-shipment stage, the customer returns the items and you refund the full order amount or a part of it.

Here are some things to keep in mind when you test:

• You can verify the results in Orders in the Merchant portal.
• The manual order management steps in the Merchant portal are available only if your Klarna integration isn't linked to any external systems, as the order status in the Merchant portal isn't synchronized with the external systems.
• Test cases 1–8 walk you through checking the basic order details in the Merchant portal's Orders.
• You can also test your integration's richness and validate some optional order details using Logs in the playground Merchant portal. Keep the API reference open as it will help you to understand the details in the logs.
• In all test cases, use Klarna’s sample customer data for the market you are testing.
• Make sure to use your test (playground) environment API credentials. Your production keys won't work in playground.

Happy testing!
