in-app-billing

I have an Android App that uses In-App-Billing to sell Account Managed Items.

I tested the App with the static respons ids and everything seems to work. I now want to test the App with real product Ids.

I created the App in the Google Play Store and uploaded a draft Version of the App with the correct Permissions. I know created an In-App-Billing item and published the item.

At the moment the App is unpublished, the item is created and published and I have a test account that is registered in the Profile of the developer account and is the only account on the device that I use for testing. The App is signed with the same key as the uploaded draft. Edit:I'm testing with Android 4.1 && 4.03 at the moment

If I try to buy the item the Google Play Store pops up but shows a dialog with the following method: The item you requested is not available for purchase.

How can I test buying the item without publishing the App?

What is the difference between a "service account" and an "installed application"?

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
To my understanding, the main difference is that a service account doesn't require a user to log in for authorization, while an installed application does.
