“Production verification” is a part of the Verification and validation procedures that are an integral part of Software quality.
Our verification services are the last link in the Quality assurance that most FI’s have in place.
Whereas hard and software elements have been verified in lower environments during the first three steps of the OTAP, it is still a very (very!) good idea to validate the process once in production.

It all starts with the embedding of our services. We become a customer of your FI (Bank) and open accounts and add those to our “money pool”. |

Setup as your client, and we can start using your infrastructure. Usually, we start with a basic transfer, but we can do any type of product. We can embed happy flows where we can follow the complete end-to-end flow or an unhappy flow". The flows follow [the customer journey](#The customer journey) and either succeed or fail. Each verification can be executed on any platform or device. Verifications can be made to execute fully automated. These automated flows can be executed by us or by your change teams after rollout |

The fully automated verifications can be scheduled to run at any given time or interval. With this schedule, you will get insight into how verifications run 24x7 | |

Last but not least, we can detect if errors occur during the execution of these scheduled verifications. These alerts can be sent to you or support teams via any means. There are even complex escalation schemes. |
The customer journey consists of the steps (sometimes called click paths) a user performs to initiate a certain product.

As an example of a customer journey, let’s look at this website example. In this example, every number stands for a functional step. On a more detailed view, even every number could have more steps a user needs to perform. We have written down some of the script steps for a more detailed overview. |
Step | Substep | Action |
---|---|---|
1 | 1 | start browser |
2 | navigate to an URL | |
3 | Check if the website contains a certain text and a login button | |
2 | 1 | Click the login button |
2 | Fill in a UserID | |
3 | Fill an OTP from a mobile app (From another script) | |
4 | Click the validate button | |
5 | Check the login result message |
As you can see, there are lots of sub-steps that make up a ‘simple step’.
In our solution, we can set OK and NOK criteria for every step. From a journey perspective, we like the all-or-nothing approach.
