Paypal Sandbox: Using cc number for multiple email addresses

Question

I want to use selenium for my smoke test. When I test it manually from the desktop, it works fine. But in the automatic test there is always an error: unabel use cc, because it is already registered at a different email address or something like that.

How to get away from this inconsistent behavior?

Answer 1

Yes, Paypal has already canceled the requirement to enter the developer's site in order to use the sandbox site ( fooobar.com/questions/1470323 / ... ). However, it will always run the "create new user" script. The error message will be around: you cannot use the cc number associated with a different email address (possibly from the payment information).

To remove this restriction, always log in to the dev portal before using the sandbox site.
