o Test strategy and writing test cases;
o Functional and accounting validation of banking transactions: accounting for installments, fees, commissions, accounting for off-balance sheet commitments;
o Technical validation of real-time interface between Core Banking and payment processor (FIS, HPS, payment system residents, ...);
o Functional and accounting validation of payment and non-payment transactions reported via the real-time interface;
o Monitoring publisher relations (Sopra Banking Software, HPS, FIS, ...);
