Market Trials ChMC 8th August 2018

UK Link Release 3 – MT overview Market Trials is a test period to provide an opportunity to validate the integration with Xoserve for the 13 changes in scope of Release 3, ensuring the changes are functioning to specification ahead of Implementation. The Market Trials (MT) phase will constitute testing of solution components by Stakeholders to verify that they can functionally perform together in a production-like operational environment. This may be completed by executing a number of test scenarios relevant to the changes in scope of Release 3. A limited test environment is to be provided to Market participants with a small provision of ‘production like’ data to enable parties to take part in Market trials testing UK Link Market Trials will be carried out in two stages – split between the changes in scope of Track 1 (13CRs) and Track 2 (XRN4454). The timelines to carry out Track 1 MT testing are 10th September to 05th October 2018 with closeout in w/c 08th October 2018 A more detailed presentation on Release 3 MT approach has been published to DSG (06th Aug) for feedback. Market Trials is expected to be voluntary and registration process and links being issued separately to parties via email To support MT test planning, Xoserve have compiled a list of stakeholders per change for verification:

MT Plan UK Link Market Trials will be carried out in two stages – split between the changes in scope of Track 1 (13CRs) and Track 2 (XRN4454) This plan is to cover Track 1 MT testing The timelines to carry out this testing are as shown below:

Business Change planned activities To assist in the familiarisation and adoption of changes across the industry, we are providing an opportunity to gain further understanding and clarity surrounding the changes to be implemented as part of release 3. For the high impacting and more complex changes we are creating training material that will be delivered by our in house trainers, onsite and supported by a member of the project team with in-depth business knowledge. This will offer an interactive experience with opportunity to ask questions on the day. These sessions will also be broadcast via WebEx where questions can be taken and responded by the SMEs. We plan to hold sessions pre and post market trials and will be delivered at descriptive file format level. For the lower level impacting changes Educational Document will be created and released This session will run alongside the customer day on the 5th September which will primarily focus on the Market Trial element of the change.
