TBD Differentiate between Client<>MF and Client<>Venue testing.

TBD ensure that ClOrdID is unique for week.

Introduction

MarketFactory clients integrate Customers access the trading venues of their choice by integration with Whisperer via a the Java, C++ or C# APIMFAPI, or by direct integration to the SBE messaging layer, to access the trading venues of their choice. .

All new clients will be are assigned a dedicated UAT environment to enable them to test in which they may develop their own application against Whisperer and the venues behindindividual Venues.

Once this stage of the process has finished, the client will be required to participate in a Certification Test with MarketFactory . Successful completion of this test is a pre-requisite to the client moving which must be completed successfully in order for the client to move into the production Whisperer environment. Additional Certification Tests may be required by individual Venues.

MarketFactory expects Clients to have performed their own Quality Assurance (QA) testing prior to the certification scenarios listed on this page.

MF Certification

The Certification MarketFactory Certification process is designed to ensure both the Client Customer and MarketFactory systems integrate correctly at a functional and non-functional level to an acceptable standard, so that both parties are confident that go-live can proceed. 

Certification Sign-off is required by the Client's project/business sponsor responsible for the integration to MarketFactory.

they can proceed with the live implementation. Once clients are live in the production environment, there may also be a requirement occasionally for re-certification, as described below.

MarketFactory expects Clients to have performed their own Quality Assurance (QA) testing in addition to the certification scenarios listed on this page.

Certification Sign-off is required by the Client's project/business sponsor responsible for the integration to MarketFactory.

• Covers all scenarios (union of all venue -specific functionality). If some scenarios are not relevant to a client than an explicit opt-out is required. To be replaced by automated test framework when this is proven internally.The present certification document does not go through an order modification

Venue Certification

Even though MarketFactory may have fully implemented a given Venue's API and successfully onboarded many Customers previously, some Venues will mandate that each new Customer be subject to their own Certification Tests. In such situations, these will be organized by MarketFactory and conduced using three-way conference calls to coordinate actions.
