CEPTEST: ep2 developers test tool

ep2 is a joint specification of the leading electronic payment and credit card companies in Switzerland. CELSI AG was one of the companies involved in creation of the ep2 specification. This experience gave us an excellent base to develop high quality products for ep2.

CEPTEST is a test tool, which allows a developer of any ep2 component to create and send messages through any message oriented ep2 interface. It also accepts, analyses and displays messages from any ep2 component. CEPTEST simulates:

-          any component

-          master or slave

-          any communication protocol of ep2 (TCP/IP + Ethernet, ISDN, PSTN)

-          with or without security header and MAC

-          with any ep2 data elements and formats

CEPTEST Server Version

In addition to the above, we offer a Server Version, which contains turn key features for stress tests and mass data tests of ep2 servers:

1. Simulate up to 100 terminals seeking parallel authorization requests, or data submission, data transmission to PMS, initialization, configuration at service center or any other server service. All requests are sent out within few milliseconds.

2. Record authorization requests and responses in files and use them for submission/transmission purposes. The easiest way to generate large submission files.

3. Simulate Issuer Script Commands execution: Generate Issuer Script Results from authorization responses into submission files. Add a probability for simulated failing of issuer script commands and adjust terminal verification results in case of issuer script command failure

4. Use Plug Ins for adding your proprietary technology to CEPTEST messages. Generate e.g. transaction certificates or other chip data by your own applications and plug in the result into CEPTEST's data stream generation.

The CEPTEST Server Version is an upgrade to corporate license standard version. Its price is CHF 2200.-. Installation on existing standard versions require a different license password, which you receive on your order of the upgrade.
