From a conversation in #wikimedia-tech. We want to be able to keep cURL
requests from going to payment processors and the like, so we can test locally
without charging accidentally to credit cards or causing intergalactic crises.
IRC log included in part for posterity:
2013-05-08 - 11:21:31 <K4-713> We can fake it by damaging cURL in a gateway
child class and just have it pull in a local form.
2013-05-08 - 11:22:31 <K4-713> So, any time it goes to contact the outside
world, it just pulls in HTML from a test dir and *says* it's from the third
party. Make sense?
2013-05-08 - 11:22:46 <K4-713> Well, the function that uses cURL.
2013-05-08 - 11:23:09 <K4-713> It's all contained conveniently in one place.
2013-05-08 - 11:23:33 <K4-713> Because I wanted to be able to do exactly this.
:)
2013-05-08 - 11:24:33 <K4-713> There it is. "curl_transaction".
2013-05-08 - 11:25:16 <K4-713> Currently line 1284 of
DonationInterface/gateway_common/gateway.adapter.php, which all payment adapter
classes descend from eventually.
2013-05-08 - 11:26:13 <K4-713> Faking the $retval might be, well... impossible
if you don't have some valid account with GC.
