Right now I am able to test credit card functionality on development server using test/dummy credit cards. But not able to test the same functionality on live server. Are there any dummy credit cards, with which we can test the same on live site?
While strictly not code-related, I think this is a good question. I've run into the issue myself.

@leppie - I can see these questions are getting to you :-)

@Cide: well friggen ask paypal, every online payment company will give you test cards. You just need to ask.

@leppie - This should be a comment. Also, the paypal docs are shocking.

@leppie - I'm no longer in need of this, but like Draemon said; the paypal docs aren't easy to browse nor are they consolidated. Regardless, questions which boil down to a [simple] search can be found all over the place 8-).

Previously I tested by buying low cost items from myself - that way you're only paying commission and you're getting most of the moneyback.
Admittedly you need 2 Paypal accounts, but that shouldn't be a problem, and you should only have to 'kick the tyres' in the live environment because all your testing will have been done in the dev environment.

Either test it in PayPal's sandbox, or use two accounts with Micro-payments of $0.05, etc.
