Building A Better Digital World
Address your digital banking testing challenges with Eggplant Solutions. Eggplant is the leading test automation and monitoring platform that helps your FinTech software scale.
DevOps at Scale
In today’s continuous world, its essential that that software delight users and drives positive business outcomes. Delivering on these expectations is no easy feat, however, testing teams are under pressure with shortening time windows and our technology environment is only growing more complex and interconnected, begging the question: how can companies possibly keep up? The answer is three-fold:
First: Start automating test execution.
Second:Expand automation to the entire test process, from test-case creation, through test execution to automated results analytics.
Third: Link Dev and Ops to learn how real users navigate your digital assets and feed back into test. This enables DevOps at scale.
Optimize UX
From mobile banking applications, to day-trading applications, to wealth management portals —and everything in between—if it’s digital, users expect it to work, at every interaction, and on every possible platform and operating system. In this age where digital transformation is so dependent upon better quality software, testing is more important than ever before. As such, companies must abandon the legacy approach of simply testing code and instead embrace a strategy that tests from the user perspective and delivers insights to optimize their experiences.
AI
Eggplant leverages AI and machine learning to uncover the riskiest areas of your technology and which components and functionality are most important to users, allowing financial services companies to focus tests on these most critical elements. Intelligent automation means companies can enjoy unprecedented test execution and coverage.
Automate Anything
Eggplant can test any technology on any device, operating system or browser at any layer, from the UI to APIs to the database. This includes everything from the most modern highly dynamic website, to legacy back-office systems, to point of sale and trading command and control systems. Eggplant can automate processes that span multiple applications and platforms, from mobile to legacy banking mainframe, from Citrix to cloud.

Regulatory Compliance
Be it MiFID II in Europe, SEC in the US or local regulators around the world, the finance sector is one of the most regulated industries in the world. We can help financial institutions meet demanding compliance obligations in a variety of ways:
- Use taps to make an identical copy of every single trade or transaction and act as the absolute truth in the event of a compliance challenge
- Use packet brokers to timestamp packets and demonstrate timing of trades
- Use TradeVision to measure latency and demonstrate compliance with best execution requirements
- Use BreakingPoint products to prove cyber security tools are hardened against DDoS attacks
Fix Market Feed Issues Fast
TradeVision — The World's Best High-Speed Feed Quality Monitoring Tool
Need to monitor the quality of your market data feeds from Exchanges or market data vendors? Need to identify and fix trading issues fast? Need to plan your trading network capacity for growth? We offer the worlds leading market data aware feed monitor tool — TradeVision. As well as the functionality of a traditional packet broker, TradeVision offers capability in three main areas:
Model Financial "What Ifs"
Modeling "what ifs" is a key part of a successful financial institution — be it real time trading infrastructure, a retail banking application or a back office banking system
- What if you experience lots of multicast gaps on my real time market feed — what happens to your overall response times and profitability?
- What if you expand to a new geographical area — what happens to your retail banking user experience if there is an extra 5 msec network delay?
- What if your network starts dropping packets — can you rely on the audit trail?
Our Network Emulator II is designed to allow network and IT Engineers to explore "what ifs" and see the impact of network impairment on real life financial applications
Test Your Banking Security Strength
Financial institutions are a high value target for cyber criminals. Understanding the vulnerability and susceptibility of IT infrastructure is a key part of risk reduction.
Challenge your security solutions from every angle to reduce your risk. Understand user experience from application to protocol, network performance to connections, user load to traffic-type scalability.
Ensure attack readiness. Train to think like attackers and know exactly how to respond, with security attacks and heavy traffic loads during beta testing and pre-production.
The Need for Speed
With high frequency trading, nano seconds matter, and so passive optical fiber taps offer a great way of monitoring network performance. Fiber taps are a reliable and cost effective way of providing packet data to cyber-security and network performance tools. Our range of optical taps are deployed in over 300 financial institutions around the world and we offer two ranges of optical taps:
Flex Taps: Modular, cost effective with multiple split ratios and fiber standard support
Patch Taps: Small footprint and Ideal for super low latency applications
