In this tutorial we demonstrate how to setup the PayPal Sandbox test environment. This allows you to create test PayPal buyer and seller accounts which you can then use to test the selling of products within DotNetNuke.

For instance, if you are using the DotNetNuke store core module, there is an option within the admin settings to use the PayPal sandbox, if you tick this option the store will ask for payment via the sandbox rather than the main PayPal website. This allows you to log in as a test user and send dummy test payments.

This is an essential technique for your ecommerce toolbox.
