3DS Authentication Debugging with Stripe Workbench

3 posts · May 2024 – Oct 2024

What this trail covers

This post continues the evolution of Stripe's development of tools and capabilities to simplify and enhance the debugging of 3D Secure (3DS) authentication flows for developers. It details how Test Clocks can be used in conjunction with Stripe Workbench to effectively test and debug Stripe Billing integrations that involve time-sensitive events, such as subscriptions and usage-based billing. This builds upon previous efforts to debug 3DS authentication and general integration issues by providing a mechanism to control time within the testing environment.

Oct 2024Easily debug your 3DS authentication with Stripe WorkbenchThis post details how to use Stripe Workbench in conjunction with Stripe Test Clocks to debug 3DS authentication flows. It explains how to investigate the payment process and obtain event data for testing code related to 3DS authentication, specifically highlighting the use of Test Clocks for more comprehensive debugging scenarios.
Oct 2024Testing subscriptions with Stripe Test Clocks and WorkbenchThis post details how to use Stripe Test Clocks in conjunction with Stripe Workbench to test subscription billing logic. It explains how Test Clocks allow developers to simulate the passage of time, enabling the testing of recurring payment scenarios, subscription renewals, and other time-dependent billing events. The post highlights the combination of these tools for improving the ability of developers to build and debug recurring payments by providing a more efficient and accurate testing environment.
Aug 2024Observing immediate versus delayed payments with Stripe WorkbenchThis post details how to use Stripe Workbench in conjunction with Test Clocks to observe and differentiate between immediate and delayed payment events. It highlights the importance of understanding which events to listen for and which properties to inspect for relevant changes when handling different payment timings within an integration.
May 2024Test clocks: How we made it easier to test Stripe Billing integrationsThis post introduces 'Test Clocks' as a new feature within Stripe's testing environment, specifically designed to control time for testing Stripe Billing integrations. It explains how Test Clocks allow developers to advance time forward or backward to simulate various scenarios like subscription renewals, trial expirations, and usage-based billing events. The post details the technical implementation of Test Clocks, their integration with Stripe Workbench, and provides examples of how they simplify the testing of complex billing logic, reducing the need for manual workarounds and improving test coverage.
