This response indicates that your payment gateway account is in Test Mode. You can identify if an account is in Test Mode by two indicators:

• Test Mode is turned ON in the Merchant Interface
• The parameter x_test_request is submitted in the transaction string as TRUE

Transactions submitted while the account is in Test Mode are not actually submitted to the credit card and electronic check processing networks, and credit card or bank accounts are not actually charged. Therefore, they do not have a valid transaction ID.

Once you have finished testing your integration project, you will need to turn Test Mode off. You can turn Test Mode off by navigating to the Test Mode page in the Settings menu of the Merchant Interface, or by submitting x_test_request = FALSE.
