This payment processing system supports multiple payment methods ( Credit Card, PayPal, Google Pay ) while ensuring scalability, flexibility, and maintainability using SOLID principles .
The system consists of multiple classes, each handling a specific responsibility :
PaymentService
Interface → Defines a common contract for all payment methods.- Payment Implementations (
CreditCardPayment
,PayPalPayment
,GooglePayPayment
) → Handle different payment methods. PaymentProcessor
→ Executes the payment process (authorization & completion).PaymentLogger
→ Logs transaction details.PaymentServiceManager
→ Manages payment processing, keepsmain
method clean.main
Method → Simply triggers payment processing.
1️⃣ PaymentService
Interface (OCP, ISP)
✔ Open for Extension (OCP) – New payment methods can be added without modifying existing code . ✔ Interface Segregation (ISP) – The interface only defines relevant payment-related methods.
2️⃣ Payment Implementations (LSP)
✔ Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) – CreditCardPayment
, PayPalPayment
, and GooglePayPayment
can replace PaymentService
without breaking the system.
3️⃣ PaymentProcessor
(DIP, SRP)
✔ Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) – PaymentProcessor
depends on an abstraction (PaymentService
) instead of concrete classes.
✔ Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) – It only handles the payment process, not logging or user input .
4️⃣ PaymentLogger
(SRP)
✔ SRP (Single Responsibility Principle) – This class only logs transactions , keeping logging separate from payment processing.
5️⃣ PaymentServiceManager
(Manages the Payment Flow)
✔ Keeps main
method clean.
✔ Manages both processing and logging in a structured way.
✔ If more functionality (like refunds) is needed, we add it here—without modifying main
!
SOLID Principle | How It Is Applied in This System |
---|---|
SRP (Single Responsibility Principle) | PaymentProcessor handles only execution,PaymentLogger handles logging,PaymentServiceManager manages operations. |
OCP (Open/Closed Principle) | New payment methods (e.g.,PaytmPayment ) can be added without modifying existing code . |
LSP (Liskov Substitution Principle) | CreditCardPayment ,PayPalPayment , and GooglePayPayment can replace PaymentService without breaking the system . |
ISP (Interface Segregation Principle) | PaymentService onlydefines necessary methods, so classes don’t have to implement unnecessary ones. |
DIP (Dependency Inversion Principle) | PaymentProcessor depends on PaymentService (an abstraction), not concrete classes . |
✔ Modular & Maintainable – Easy to add new payment types without modifying existing classes .
✔ Flexible & Extensible – We can extend functionality (e.g., refunds, multiple currencies) without breaking the system .
✔ Testable & Scalable – Each class can be tested separately , making debugging easier.
✔ Adheres to Best Practices – The main
method is clean , and concerns are well-separated.
💯 This design ensures a flexible, extensible, and scalable payment processing system following all SOLID principles.
