CUG Testing
The Closed User Group (CUG) functions as a testing process to validate new features and UI adjustments before deploying them into the live production environment.
This step ensures that modifications do not disrupt the smooth flow of live transactions.
It is highly recommended to perform CUG testing on your live Play Store / App store app unless specific payload/sdk level changes are required from your end to validate and test the feature.
Upon successful validation of UI changes and feature functionality within the CUG environment, please provide your approval so that we can initiate the release process.
Once the release is completed, the updated features and UI modifications will be rolled out to all live users, ensuring a seamless transition.
CUG changes take time to reflect on Android/iOS devices hence it is recommended to terminate the app a couple of times to get the changes.

Webview Implementation in App
For merchants who have integrated Juspay Payment Page via webview within their native app, testing the flows by pointing directly to CUG is not possible. As a workaround, to enable CUG testing, add the following code snippet to set the User-Agent before initializing the WebView. This can be used temporarily for testing purposes.
