# Verification Sandbox and Testing

> Create sample KYC verification results from the iDenfy dashboard to test integrations, webhook handling, and decision logic without real users.

**Create test verification results directly from the Dashboard**

The **Sample verification** feature allows you to generate test identity verifications with predefined outcomes. It is designed to help you validate integrations, webhook handling, and decision logic **without real users or documents**.

**Key characteristics**

* Appears in the **Verification list**
* It is specially marked in the **verification list**
* Triggers **real webhook callbacks**
* Follows the same lifecycle as production verifications

***

## When to Use Sample Verifications

Use sample verifications to:

* Test webhook delivery and payload parsing
* Validate approval and denial flows
* Simulate automated vs. manual reviews
* Verify redirect logic and status handling
* Run QA without consuming production resources

<Tip>
  - No real documents are requested
  - The result is generated based on the selected scenario
  - Available to all environment types
</Tip>
