How can I test my codes for future trading.

Hey guys, I have finished developing my sample codes. Now I want to testing my codes if there are any bugs on future trading. But it seems that there is no more document about future trading test net. I can only find out the spot trading one.

So how can I test my future trading codes, which using the ‘/fapi’ interfaces. By replacing the domain to ‘testnet.binancefuture.com’, and keep other codes? Or is there any documents has describe about this?

Thank you.

Or should I just replace my api-key and api secret with the one provided by the 98000.1 | BTCUSDT USDⓈ-Margined Perpetual Chart | Binance Futures

like this ?

Hi @hopperhuang,

Yes, you can test your futures trading code using the Binance Futures Testnet environment. Here are the steps to get started:

  1. Switch to the Testnet API Base URL: Replace your current API base URL with the Binance Futures Testnet URL: https://testnet.binancefuture.com. This allows you to simulate trades in a sandbox environment without risking real funds.

  2. Create API Keys for the Testnet:

  • You need to generate separate API keys specifically for the Testnet. Visit the Binance Futures Testnet and log in using your Binance account.
  • Once logged in, navigate to the API management section to create and manage Testnet API keys.

  1. Keep Other Code Unchanged: Your existing /fapi endpoints and other logic can remain the same, as the Testnet mimics the behavior of the live Binance Futures environment.

  2. Documentation: While Testnet-specific documentation may be limited, the Binance API Documentation applies to both the live environment and the Testnet. Just ensure you use the Testnet base URL for testing.

I hope that helps!
