Automated testing of Fidessa® hosted and enterprise systems.

The most powerful framework to achieve complete regression testing of Fidessa business workflows.

Esprow ETP for Fidessa OpenAccess opens up a world of efficiencies by carrying out complete regression testing of all your Fidessa business workflows, across all modules, in minutes. It connects to each and every component of your Fidessa platform: OMAR, TMAR, PMAC, EMMA, AMMA, JMIS, CTAC, and so on, and exercises 100% of their business functionality through their OpenAccess and FIX APIs.

Because of ETP Studio's unique support for concurrent multi-protocol connections you can connect to multiple Fidessa components, whether OpenAccess or FIX, at the same time, and execute complex business scenarios to realize full end-to-end testing.

Imagine being able to automate a complex test scenario involving DMA client-flow coming through a FIX gateway and being forwarded to Fidessa TOP; split and work orders through EMMA/AMMA/JMIS, simulating different types of fills; completing all orders and notifying executions back to your clients via FIX. All of this is possible in ETP Studio for Fidessa with one single test script.
