For the test environment, log in to Sandbox.

After logging in, go to my user under Account. Here, the admin will find the API keys. 

Now, click on the View API Keys button. 

All the details for the Merchant ID, Private Key, and Public Key will be available here.

Copy and paste the Merchant ID, Private Key, and Public Key from the Braintree Account to the payment gateway configuration page. 

When testing your payment gateway in the test mode, you may need to use specific test credit card numbers to trigger different responses from the gateway.

You can access the test credit card numbers from the documentation directly by clicking the link below:
