Testing
The aim is to simulate regular market activities within the test environment; we therefore ask that members attempt to simulate both the functions used and volumes of a normal production day.
There are no specific test case scripts; members are encouraged to create their own test cases.
- Please use realistic prices and volumes
- Please trade the instrument series you normally would trade on
- Production ids should be used and normal trading software should be used for market making etc.
Extra Cascading test arranged Friday, 10th of February
- An extra cascading test for members that wish to verify their FIX or OMnet based integration is offered on Friday, 10th of February. The test is executed using dummy instruments If you wish to participate in this test, please send an email to clearing.market@nasdaqomx.com no later than by 10 a.m. CET Thursday 10th, 2012.
