Answer 1

I was getting Error # 9999 with the message Only Test Cards Allowed.

I found a sample on Elavon's site that had an example with the credit card number 5472063333333330. Using this number, my tests were able to go through.

Answer 2

Just set test mode false, and now it's working fine,

<ssl_test_mode>False</ssl_test_mode>

Then test card no 4111111111111111

Answer 3

I had this issue as well, so I called Converge to find out. Unfortunately they do not have any test credit card numbers, however if you change

<ssl_transaction_type>ccsale</ssl_transaction_type>

to

<ssl_transaction_type>ccauthonly</ssl_transaction_type>

you can use a real credit card and it will only authorize the card for the amount, but will not debit/charge the card you use. Obviously you'll want to use this method over HTTPS so your personal credit card information is transmitted securely, but by doing ccauthonly you can effectively test your payment gateway without using real money.
