How to create a test account on Paypal?

Question

PayPal

I can't create a test account on Paypal because everything is confusing there. For example, what is the difference between https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accounts/create and https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/signup/account?
What do I need?

To register, you must first create an account in general, and it will already be possible to create sandbox accounts.
It should be added that these accounts can be used for the purpose of testing the work of the PayPal gateway, for example, screwed on your site, these sendbox accounts are an imitation of real users with the amount of money on the PayPal account that they can spend virtually, and you will check the functioning of your gateway .
At the same time, for such testing, paypal will provide you with a demo
API username of the form: br_api1.domain.ru
API password *******
Signature of the form: GIUgsfdgjhgsdjh5hkj43gkg43j5gf25hj32gf45cf4cdjgf4k32h4g5kj432
they will need to be entered in the gateway settings.
ADF:
if you go to your first link
https://developer.paypal.com/developer/accounts/create
, click on the SIGN IN button and log in to your account at least 1 time
, you will see the following window, at the end of which - Create account.
"since everything is confused there" - the words of a person who did not even try to find the answer on his own.
