  Tenyks exposes a test-vs-live separation at the host level rather than through
  test key prefixes. The same API runs against two hosts, selected by the
  OpenAPI server `base_url` variable. No magic/test credential values or test
  cards are published (Tenyks is not a payments API), so none are invented here.
