The scripting engine will sent the transaction message for applying business logic
Once formatted, the transaction will be given back to the core for sending to authorization Host
The core will use the Outbound JSON definition to pack the message and send it to the Issuer connection
The incoming authorization response will be parsed, verified and checked for RC or other fields

Visa Acquirer Issuer simulator
Acquiring from Visa can be easily simulated by our neaPay engine.
How does it work? Load the Visa scripts in our simulator engine,
the Visa message format, and do not forget the test cases. Make
sure you point to the IP and port you need and start firing away
those transactions like they came from Visa. Authorize in your
system and our scripts will wait for the response to validate.
Visa Issuer is loaded the same way, just use authorization scripts
for issuing, and select the connection type to be a server. The
scripts know what messages to wait for, process and respond. It is
the best way to test your system before going to certification with
Visa. You do not want to keep the certification open for too long.
MasterCard Acquirer Issuer simulator
MasterCard Acquiring is just as easy. Load the BankNet scripts, as well as the messages and test cases, point the simulator to your system and run transactions. One by one, in batches or in full regression mode, it is all a matter of choice. All messages go out in parallel and can come back in any order. Just like a real authorization system.
MasterCard Issuing works with the same scripts, but uses the issuer part of them. The logic in the scripts decides that when you select the option to listen as a server.
Diners, Amex, JCB, CUP simulator
Diners, Amex, JCB, China Union Pay? For the engine it is a matter
of loading a different script and formatting messages differently.
For the tester it is just a difference of test cases. And IP/port.
Acquiring or issuing, that is just an option.
Pre-certification tests with any switch will give you confidence
and you will have the flexibility to test beyond the certification
test cases.
If you are a switch , you can use our simulator
to certify member banks with your switch!
POS, ATM and e-commerce simulator
POS and e-commerce transactions work just as easily. Load the scripts, the transactions and start testing. Or make changes to match your custom interfaces, and then test as much as you want.
Each ATM vendor comes with a different format and it may be a little more complicated. To be honest, if your vendor provides a simulator for the ATM, use that one. If you need something heavily customized, then neaPay's engine will definitely be able to do it. Contact us and tell us what device you have, we might have the scripts for it already. If not, it is never too late to write a new one.
Regression Testing
Ensuring your payments system did not lose any functionality on updates. Check and validate that limits are working just as fine as before, that the accounts are debited and usages are updated. Each of them. A good regression pack can detect whether your limits are working fine, your balances are fine, all your fields are formatted correctly, for each transaction type, and your transactions are approved or declined as before. With that peace of mind, you can proceed to test the enhancements. Our simulators are designed with a regression approach from the beginning, therefore, any new functionality can be easily added to the regression pack, so next time you apply changes, these enhancements will be tested as part of the regression. After a few years, you will have a nice regression pack of a few hundred or thousand transactions, which can be run in less than an hour to check the status of the system, any day or night. You want this, we know you do, and our simulator can do it very well.
Automatic Regression Testing
We know that you need the functionality above and you know you want it executed as soon as possible. What is your estimate for running a complete regression for the system, that covers everything, with 1000 test cases? You may say a week, you may say maybe two, or you may dare to estimate 2 days. We say that takes an hour. Because that is the estimate we wanted in our test plans and we made the simulator that can do that. Once all is set up properly, click the Run and go for a coffee. When you come back, you have your answer.
Performance Testing
Your system must do all the processing at very high speed, so we built a matching simulator, which can run just as fast. We believe that 60 transactions need to be run in 3 seconds, not 30. We hope you agree. So our simulator can run fast enough to be used for performance testing, even without caching features. We have in plan to add a caching feature, which can release hundreds of transactions per second, it will be here soon!
Frequently Asked Questions
What technology and architecture is used?
The Simulator is written in Java, runs on any platform where Java is available. The configuration and behavior are written in JavScript, which is delivered to the customer
Where can it deploy and run? Does it work in the cloud?
Most users run POC, smoke and Functional tests on a PC workstation or Mac, Windows VM, Linux Vm
Regressions are usually run manually on Linux/Windows VMs, or automatically on Azure Pipelines AWS DevOps, Atlassian bitbucket pipelines
Duration testing and High performance testing are usually run on Windows VMs, but available on any OS or in containers.
Can multiple simulators run and perform different simulations?
As a stand alone instance with User Interface, each simulator instance can run its own configuration to perform separate tests.
Several simulators can be run on the same machine, in separate folders, for ISO8583, ISO 20022, Visa, Amex, MasterCard, clearing.
Each simulator is deployed, configured and maintained separately (manually or via git)
How configurable and customizable is it?
All connectivity, message formats, business logic, are usually delivered pre-configured, ready to run, if the customer chooses to.
The customer can change all configuration, format and business logic, on-premise.
All configuration is easy to version-control (via git).
How fast is the neaPay ISO8583 Performance Test Simulator?
The neaPay Card Payments simulator is designed from start from hgh performance testing.
Each release is tested to run at 1000 TPS. Depending on the hardware limitations and cryptographic operations, it can slow down.
This speed is sufficient to satisfy the speed of a whole country processing system. Multiple instances with slower speed are recommended, to simulate multiple transaction sources.
How long will it take to implement a new protocol?
Most common formats are already available. The neaPay card payments ISO8583 simulator can be set up for a POC in a few hours.
Depending on the size of the scope, and number of transaction types, we can get the most of it set up and ready for testing in a few weeks.
Then it can be used for testing for decades.
