Testing an Express Checkout
Integration
You can test your Express Checkout integration in the Sandbox.
This example shows how to simulate your web pages using HTTP forms and supplying the
values for API operations from these forms. You can use this strategy for your initial testing;
however, for more complete testing, you will want to replace these forms with your web pages
containing actual code.
The following diagram shows the Express Checkout execution flow, which uses the Sandbox
as the API server. The pages on the left represent your site.
