@Shay I think all that is well understood. There remain two problems with testing orders via the online store:
- The bogus gateway has a cap on the number of sales that can be processed. This is not conducive to long-term maintenance of an app. Raising it via support request is not a solution, it’s a workaround.
- Draft orders can’t be tested. Not only are draft orders a much more convenient way to test orders (resulting is lower development costs for app developers), there is functionality unique to draft orders.
While the original issue has technically been solved, the bogus gateway/online store workflow remains severely broken. To bring this home to Shopify’s bottom line, if new developers can’t figure out how to test an order, cadence of new development on Shopify’s platform is going to decline. Likewise, the more dev-hostile design decisions that are made, the more likely existing developers are going to be to partner with another eCommerce platform.
