Frequently asked questions

About the product

The Unifits Test Engine is a purpose-built solution for automating payment testing, particularly for ISO 20022 compliance. It reduces manual effort by up to 80%, enhances test coverage, and accelerates go-lives while ensuring continuous compliance with evolving scheme guidelines.

The Unifits Test Portal offers fast, ad-hoc validation and test message creation, while the Unifits Test Engine is designed for full automation of end-to-end payment testing. Banks can choose their own pace, e.g. starting with the Unifits Test Portal and later integrating the Unifits Test Engine for advanced automation as needed.

The Unifits Test Engine is not a dedicated performance testing tool, but it includes specialized modules designed to simulate high transaction loads, such as for instant payments. These features allow financial institutions to generate significant traffic volumes and measure the response times of the system under test, providing valuable insights into system performance and scalability.

While generic tools can be used for various testing scenarios, they lack the deep financial industry expertise embedded in Unifits. The Test Engine provides industry-specific simulators for payment processing, making it far more effective and cost-efficient for banks and financial institutions transitioning to ISO 20022.

While initially focused on ISO 20022, the Unifits Test Engine now supports SWIFT MT message types and proprietary bank formats, ensuring compatibility with legacy systems and various payment infrastructures.

About deployment

Both deployment options are available. Most banks prefer on-premises installations due to regulatory and security considerations, particularly when handling production-related or personal data.

The modular Unifits Platform is designed specifically for banks and central infrastructures, supporting everything from initial onboarding to complex end-to-end testing. Its scalability ensures reliability at any operational scale.

About integration

The Unifits Test Engine is fully API-compatible, allowing integration with tools like Jenkins, HP ALM, JIRA, and Silk. It enables automated test execution, result retrieval, and report generation to ensure compliance with internal documentation policies.

Unifits supports web services and APIs, ensuring seamless integration with open banking frameworks. Additionally, all common industry standards are supported, including MQ Series, Active MQ, File Transfer, EBICS, and gRPC.

General FAQs

ISO 20022 is the global standard for financial messaging, enabling richer, structured data and enhanced interoperability. Testing ensures smooth migration, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency, preventing costly errors in payment processing.

Common challenges include format validation, end-to-end message consistency, and ensuring compliance with evolving standards. Unifits automates these processes, reducing testing effort and accelerating readiness for migration.

Automated testing ensures continuous validation against regulatory standards, reducing manual intervention and the risk of human error. Unifits’ purpose-built automation covers more test scenarios than manual processes, providing a higher level of compliance assurance.

Unifits enables financial institutions to run thousands of test executions rapidly, identifying defects early and ensuring a smooth transition to ISO 20022 without delaying deployments.
