Testing the Credit Card Interface

Testing the Credit Card Interface

---

BBSM performs credit card authentication and billing through the CyberSource ICS billing server. Before deployment, the interface needs to be tested to make sure that it functions properly on the production BBSM server.

Use the following procedure to test the credit card interface.

---

Step 1 Set up an account for testing. At the CyberSource website, www.cybersource.com/register, fill out the form to obtain the free testing account.

Step 2 Wait for a response email from CyberSource that contains the merchant ID.

Step 3 Use the ecert application to create the needed keys. From a DOS window, go to the directory c:\opt\ics\keys. (Currently some older files are being shipped. Rename all these older files or copy them to a backup folder in this format: Ecert <merchant ID>.) See the following example:

C:\opt\ics\keys>ecert sclink1
The application will now send the newly created key pair and
certificate request to the server.

Merchant id, sclink1
Server host name, setup.ic3.com
Server port number, 80

This process will add your new keys into the test environment.

Certificate generation completed successfully

Merchant password data written to, C:\opt\ics\keys\sclink1.pwd
Merchant certificate data written to, C:\opt\ics\keys\sclink1.crt
Merchant private key data written to, C:\opt\ics\keys\sclink1.pvt
Server certificate data written to, C:\opt\ics\keys\
CyberSource_SJC_US.crt

You are now ready to access the CyberSource test server. Upon request
CyberSource will activate your newly generated keys in the production
environment. At that time a CyberSource employee will verbally confirm your
password as given below, please make a note of it.

Certificate generation verification password, 0174-1452-2841-01684-27778
