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

• 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.

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.

Recertification

The need for re-certification testing will be decided on a case by case basis, but generally will be required in the following circumstances:

• If MarketFactory needs to make changes to their server-side infrastructure that could impact the Customer.
• If live clients need to make changes to their application or to their infrastructure, which could impact MarketFactory or Venue processing.
• If the connectivity method between MarketFactory and the Customer changes in any way
• If MarketFactory, the Customer or a Venue should decide that there is a need to conduct a re-certification.
