TPPN-OLTB-Parser
Nearly a description of the Test tool TPPN-OLTB-Parser.
TPPN = Transaction Protocol for Private Network applicable in Belgian banks.
OLTB = One Line To the Bank that is a end to end transaction authorization system.
Main Screen:
This is the main screen from where user has already access to a lot of functionalities.
He can insert datat ISO8583 compliant and ge detail of it. He can connect to the mainframe and perform some commands (this is a specific function only available to the client where I develop this application).
User can also maintain the reference parameters that are put on flat files.
Records listed:
After user has put some records to parse, a first analyse is done about the type of records that are listed.
User can get details of each record by double-click on it.
He can also launch a test script that will validate the whole set of records.
Parsing detail of record:
This screen gives detail about one record. Each field is calculated from a Hex Bitmap and content is validated depending of the reference parameters.
After user has receive details of a record, the content becomes readable and controls are automatically performed.
Parsing result of test script:
When records are listed, User can run a predefined test script and each record will be parsed, analysed and controlled regarding expected fields and values of the test script.
User will be able to see the interaction between records and the final result will be displayed.
Conclusion:
This tool is a very easy to use and maintain tool. It allows a spare of time that is from 1/4. We discover this benefits while performing test certification to the banks.
The result of parsing is 100% sure so that the risk of bad manually interpretation is null.
My tool is still used at the client since 6 years.
