Conformance testing is vital for determining whether an ISV or member-produced software application will interact correctly with ICE markets prior to accessing the live production environment.
Testing is carried out in test environments for all new applications and for major upgrades of the trading interfaces. The primary aim of the exchange is to protect the integrity of ICE markets for trading members and to provide a basic level of testing that minimizes the possibility of product failure. While the exchange offers a basic conformance test, all firms integrating to the platform are expected to thoroughly test their applications independent of the conformance process. Please contact us for any conformance related queries and to book conformance slots for developed applications.
