Anchor to Using the test certificateUsing the test certificate

To use Shopify's test certificate, set the value of the encryption_certificate_fingerprint field to Test Certificate in your credit card payment extension then, deploy and release the extension.

encryption_certificate_fingerprint = "Test Certificate"

With the test certificate configured, Shopify will always send the same static test payload data in the payment_method hash for every payment session request.
