Bring Speed, Accuracy, & Efficiency to Your ATM Testing Operations!

As the owner/operator of a modern ATM estate, you know how important it is to deliver a superior customer experience on every transaction, no matter the time, day or night. This means you’re always on the lookout for ways to improve the availability, reliability, and security of your fleet.

The demands of today's sophisticated consumers, along with the rapid pace of change driving the payment industry, make it very difficult for organizations who rely on manual testing tools and processes to keep up. Paragon's VirtualATM solution uses a centralized database, virtualization technology, flexible automation capabilities, and a RESTful API to boost the performance of resources in any ATM test lab.

Speed & Scale

Multiple automation options (including a published API) help run more tests in less time

Recorded or scripted tests can be run and rerun as many times as required

Automated regression tests can be scheduled to run at night or on weekends

Testing capacity can be scaled up by simply creating additional copies of virtual ATMs

The RESTful API facilitates easy integration with other enterprise systems, such as CI/CD pipelines

Productivity

Users are not tied to a physical test lab - VirtualATM enables them to test any time, from any location, 24x7x365

Increased testing accuracy, coverage, and consistency mean there are fewer errors and less retesting

Virtualized ATM image configurations can be easily copied, cloned, or modified as needed

Support for remote workers and cloud-based technologies help increase productivity (and reduce costs)

Users can test with NCR, DN, Hyosung, or any CEN-XFS compliant ATMs through a common interface

Collaboration

Developers and testers can easily share ATM images, test cards, scripts, and other test media

Digital test results and reports can be archived and shared across the organization as needed

Automation helps save testing time and effort, allowing resources to collaborate on solving more strategic problems

Multiple versions of virtualized ATM images can be easily shared, stored, and accessed whenever they are needed

Detailed reports, audit logs, and communication trace files promote collaborative problem-solving

Results & Analytics

A central database stores historical test results and reports as long as required

Detailed reports available for every test, including screen comparisons, key presses, fault conditions, etc.

Receipts can be saved and stored as testing artifacts

Detailed ATM-to-Host comms tracing and XFS message logging are available

The RESTful API can be used to generate custom reports

Control and Security

Centralized system administrative control improves operational security

Specific user roles and permissions are easily set up and maintained

VirtualATM version updates can be automatically distributed to all users to keep everyone in sync

Simplified fault testing of physical ATM components minimizes the risk of breaking expensive hardware

Flexible deployment options, e.g. on-prem or in the cloud, are available

Energize Your ATM Testing Operations With VirtualATM!

Access

Free your resources from the constraints of a physical ATM test lab and give them 24x7 anytime, anywhere remote testing capabilities using as many, virtualized copies of your ATM assets as needed.

Speed

Multiple automation options, including “Record and Playback” of transactions, a data-driven scripting API, and regression testing, significantly increases testing speed and bandwidth.

Flexibility

VirtualATM profiles, including hardware devices, cards and test media, are easily managed, copied or cloned so that each tester can have their own sandbox environment to work in.

Availability

Remove testing bottlenecks by easily duplicating, sharing and archiving multiple ATM images for immediate use by your Development, QA and test teams whenever and wherever they are needed.

Collaboration

A server-based architecture provides full administrative control over user roles and permissions, enabling testers to share virtual ATMs, and data, including test cards, media, results and reports.

Control

You can quickly and easily manage VATM version updates or distribute new test media and scripts to all users in order to keep your ATM testing operation running at peak efficiency.
