"NOTE: You cannot test most Payment and Shipping Modules in Maintenance mode"

When I put my site in maintenance mode, there is yellow warning bar in the admin console stating:

WARNING: Site is currently set to Down for Maintenance ...
NOTE: You cannot test most Payment and Shipping Modules in Maintenance mode
Is there a list out there of Payment modules that can be tested in Maintenance mode?

Thanks,
Daniel

Re: "NOTE: You cannot test most Payment and Shipping Modules in Maintenance mode"

A large number (probably most) of the payment and shipping modules are written by 3rd parties. As you can imagine, these are tweaked and edited over time.

While it is probably possible to compile a list, who exactly is going to write the list? Someone must download, install, configure and rigorously test EVERY shipping module (including ones for Zambia, when they live in Mexico) and EVERY payment module?

You are most welcome to take on this project if it means so much to you. :D
