Lexcel is EMVCo Certified
Rather than go ‘halfway’ with an EMV™ pre-certification and testing system for ATMs, ATM Networks and the Issuing Host, Lexcel® invested the additional time and resources required to deliver a solution to our clients that is EMVCo Certified. The time to find out if there is a compliance issue is during the QA and User Acceptance Testing process - NOT when the systems are rolled into production. Only an EMV pre-certification and testing system that has been certified by EMVCo can offer that protection.
By adopting the Lexcel EMV PowerSet™ for ATM, Network and Issuing Host EMV testing, our European customers have guaranteed that all of their EMV-enhanced systems are accurate, fast, and 100% in compliance with the EMV standard.
Lexcel users around the world can now upgrade their current Lexcel systems for EMV, or purchase the additional modules that comprise the Lexcel EMV PowerSet.
“Since Coventry Building Society installed Lexcel’s ATM simulator a couple of years ago, it has enabled us to perform regression testing easily and quickly. We have built up a bank of regression test scripts which can be played back by the click of button. The results of all the tests can then be compared against the expected results. This allows us to prove quickly that whatever new project functionality we are currently testing, the rest of the system remains unaffected.
We are now looking forward to moving into the EMV arena where we can perform test chip transactions using real chip cards. This is achieved by using a chip card reader directly connected to the Lexcel ATM simulator.”
— Paolo LaBarbera, Coventry Building Society
With the addition of our certified EMVCo certified kernel to Lexcel TestSystem® ATM, developers and users are empowered with the capability to perform end-to-end verification of Chip functionality that includes:
- Compatibility with Lexcel TestSystem Network
- Simulated transactions with physical and virtual EMV cards
- Creation of test error conditions using Lexcel software that are impossible to create on physical or actual Chip cards and terminals
- Using virtual cards to track the data flow all the way through to card level
Thanks to long-time customers like Coventry Building Society, Lexcel continues to lead the industry in delivering technologies the industry requires to excel in delivering trusted products to customers and partners.
