After you register your account with USPS, you'll have access to their test servers, which support only "canned" tests, meaning that the test servers will only accept certain request data.

Valid values for testing.
URL: http://testing.shippingapis.com/ShippingAPITest.dll
Zip to = "20008";
Zip from ="10022";
Weight = 2;
