Mauritius bank deploys Level Four's automated ATM testing solution
August 19, 2009
London-based Level Four Software Ltd., provider of open standards-based ATM software, has launched its ATM Developer automated testing solution at Mauritius Commercial Bank. MCB, with an estate of 146 ATMs, is the largest bank in Mauritius.
According to a news release, with Level Four's ATM Developer, the bank is able to automate the testing of its ATMs, speeding up the deployment of new ATM software and services and reducing internal resources.
Before the deployment of ATM Developer, MCB performed manual testing to ensure any change to the ATM network didn't impact the channel's availability. The bank signed the contract with Level Four in March 2009 before going live with ATM Developer in June 2009.
MCB is now able to perform thorough testing, carry out parallel testing and respond to business requirements in considerably less time than its previous manual testing process allowed. It will enable the bank to test bunch-note acceptance. Without ATM Developer, the introduction of BNA transactions would have been challenging as they require more frequent and rigorous testing of the ATM network due to the increased complexities involved.
Jean-Francois Provencal, MCB's self-service banking coordinator says ATM Developer allows the bank to simulate scenarios and test new ATM functionalities before they are implemented:
 | We have a range of new services and products coming soon that we wish to operate through our ATM network and being able to automate the testing will save us time and money. Being able to perform comprehensive tests from a laptop in our office and at a time convenient to us — instead of having to be physically present in the ATM labs — are a few of the benefits of having this tool. Moreover we no longer have to keep different ATM models or occupy space in ATM labs. |  |
