Re: Best testing practice for a Payment Systems

In (credit cards) application two most important things are

1)Security
2)Accuracy

So, always test for secure connection, I mean SSL support which is mandatory for this type of application to avoid theft.

Second, transaction should accurate.

Other important thing is recovery of the application if there is any problem and other requirements as per SRS.

SSL is secure socket layer used to established a secure connection b/w client and server.

SRS is software requirement specification document which has been discussed so many times here, just search the form for it.

Main differences while testing this kind of live transactions and an online application depends on application to application.Otherwise what has been explained in earlier post is the main difference, that is high level security and accuracy is required for this type of application in comparison of general web application.
