How to set up and validate locally

Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.

  1. In the Rails console, configure Telesign by setting the CUSTOMER_ID and API_KEY variables to the values in 1Password:

    ::Gitlab::CurrentSettings.update(telesign_customer_xid: CUSTOMER_ID, telesign_api_key: API_KEY)
  2. Set variable INTERNATIONAL_PHONE_NUMBER - should be your country code and phone number e.g. 447585886933 for UK.

  3. Check the telesign score for a user, it should be 0.0:

    u = User.find(1)
    u.telesign_score
    => 0.0
  4. Send the verification code for the user and their phone number:

    params = { country: 'UK', international_dial_code: 44, phone_number: '7585886933' }
    result = PhoneVerification::Users::SendVerificationCodeService.new(u, params).execute
  5. Check the telesign_score for the user, it should be equal to the risk_score value returned from Telesign:

    u.telesign_score
    => 12.0
