It’s time to place a test order in your store. This will allow you to experience what it’s like to make a purchase on your store, and ensure you’re set up to sell successfully.
In order to place a test order, you must select a Shopify plan.
There are three ways to place a test order, you’ll learn more about in the video:
Use Shopify’s Bogus Gateway to simulate a transaction.
Use a real payment provider, and then immediately cancel and refund the order.
