Values for negative testing

[Temp20221122C]

Hello, I need to provoke errors in my Sandbox environment to prevent such error in the future. Is there any possibility to provoke an error (for example insufficient funds)? Maybe with some certain values which I put in the information for credit card or something like that.

I activated the negative testing in the settings but I can't test it correctly because there are no errors.

Thank you!
