STAR recently announced its choice of the Lexcel TestSystem to facilitate and simplify
network certification for all network processors. This user-friendly, Windows-based
transaction simulator is available to all STAR processors using the STAR ISO, STAR Northeast ISO, MASM, or MAC ISO message formats and runs on a standalone PC workstation.
With the Lexcel TestSystem, STAR processors can simulate STAR transactions from an
acquirer and/or authorization perspective. The simulator:
Provides real-time responses to the processor’s test transactions
Uses actual test card data to create and send scripted acquirer transactions to the
processor’s host system
Simulates an authorization processor when transactions are received from the
processor’s acquiring system
For a very reasonable cost, the Lexcel TestSystem will improve a processor’s development,
internal quality assurance and STAR certification efforts. For more information, please
contact Processor Relations at 321.263.3000 or 619.234.4774.
