As software vendors offer more flexible solutions to their clients, the need for complex testing increases. This is further complicated by the need not just to test applications in isolation but as an integral part of a larger application environment. Bug fixes, patches, new development and upgrades have to be tested end to end across all the involved platforms and systems. This process requires good coordination, tremendous effort, time to execute the test scenarios and large numbers of resources. All of this adds up when looking at the overall cost of testing. Therefore the use of ready and properly structured test scenarios not only can ensure the completeness of test coverage, but also significantly reduce deployment and testing costs.

Validata SAS has been developed to deliver packaged, enterprise wide solutions, in testing and legacy migration for the financial sector and banking IT professionals. Significant investment has been made in both the development of product functionality and relevant content, re-usable test cases to be packaged and delivered to clients as part of the overall product solution. Our goal from the outset was to optimize reusability across functional, technical and regression testing. Our Model Bank Testing Accelerators will allow us and our partners to jump start our clients’ implementation by having up to 70% of the core Test Cases and Test Steps available immediately testing begins. The reusability of the automated libraries offers real value. From Test Requirements, Test Design, Test Scenarios and scripts to Change Management, we can help your validation efforts. Reusability is the key driver in reducing costs.

Test data ready for use with minor changes for client specific setup Definition of financial objects and mapping to T24 ready for use Test cases grouped into logical functions at a granular level to enable selection of relevant functions Financial test cases built to cover all main banking functions Utilization of the product features of re-usability Reduction in effort in test preparation and quicker times to delivery Automated test result checks

To ensure completeness of test coverage, test cases have been designed using the following principles:  Re-usability based on:  Site independence  System Date independence  Currency independence  Exchange and interest rate independence  ‘Four Eyes’ principle of input and authorize  Input, Amend, Reverse and Delete  End to End check steps including limit updates, entry and delivery message generation, General Ledger updates  Verification of SWIFT message output  Checks of interest calculations and currency conversions  Multiple users  Automatic triggered of COB and confirmation of successful completion

These test cases provide wide coverage of the functional areas of TEMENOS T24 Model Bank:  Core  Trade Finance and Guarantees  Arrangement Architecture  Wealth Management  SWIFT  Reporting / Accounting We also provide coverage for Canadian Platform Scenarios Core 1650

In depth cover Bank specific products and processes Meet testing needs to cover local development Reduce the effort and cost of testing by % against testing on a manual basis Increase reusability with available test cases Test cases, easy to use for testing through Web, GUI or OFS Especially designed execution cycles to meet the needs of each bank, covering daily, monthly and quarterly processing cycles Test cases based on business workflows and business scenarios
