Creating Test Orders in Marketplace or Cart
The test orders generation process differs from storefront to storefront. Some storefronts permit you to create orders specifically for testing, whereas, others require you to generate a normal order.
Most marketplaces do not permit you to create a test order. To set up order sync for a marketplace, create a live order for a low value item, using yourself as a customer. Then, use that order for testing.
Most marketplaces require orders to be shipped within a certain time frame and penalize you if you fail to meet that requirement. If the marketplace for which you are creating a test order has such a requirement, wait to create the test order until you know it will be marked shipped in time. Doing so will avoid any penalties.
Most carts permit you to create test orders. Refer to the respective storefront’s documentation for more information. However, if you cannot find test order documentation for the cart, or you are unable to create a test order, then create a live order. The live order can be for a low value item, using yourself as a customer. Then, use that order for testing.
