CHICAGO, October 1 /PRNewswire/ --

Leading electronic trading solutions provider, Greenline Financial
Technologies Inc., announced today the release of the latest version of its
FIX Protocol Testing Suite -- VeriFIX(R) 4.5. VeriFIX(R) is the most
comprehensive electronic trading regression and performance testing system
available in the marketplace today.

VeriFIX(R) is a financial protocol testing application that reduces costs
associated with the development and deployment of electronic trading systems.
The feature-rich testing suite can test and emulate all types of customers
including FCMs, trading firms, ECNs, brokerage houses, and exchanges.
VeriFIX(R) provides an intuitive interface for simple system testing as well
as a robust framework for the simple design and rapid execution of
interactive tests.

VeriFIX(R) 4.5 supports FAST 1.1 as well as the FIX 5.0 specification.
Positive and negative FAST scenarios can be created using VeriFIX's standard
protocol definition and scenario editor. VeriFIX(R) integrates directly with
FAST .XML template configurations, which define the encoding/decoding rules.

An API has been added in VeriFIX(R) 4.5 that allows users to remotely run
scenarios, configure sessions, and retrieve FIX message and scenario output.
This API can be used by external test harness applications to drive a series
of tests and retrieve output. Common actions such as sending messages,
resetting sequence numbers, changing system variables, and playing scenarios
can be requested by third parties based on VeriFIX's API message
specification.

The new version of VeriFIX(R) allows users to create comprehensive 
multi-counterparty scenarios from production logs. It can replay not just
the sending of messages, but also the receiving and validating of responses.
Synchronization functionality enables users to replay the logs at any speed
as well as manage order of executions from multiple FIX sessions.

VeriFIX(R) 4.5 also contains a new comparison engine that allows users to
compare the FIX message logs across multiple test runs in an intelligent
manner. The Log Comparison Viewer provides a visual comparison between two
sets of FIX message logs, allowing the user to specify inclusion/exclusion
rules, reordering rules, and synchronization options. The release also
includes an optimized database for maintaining scenario results in real time
and generating custom reports for distribution to management.

Braden Janowski, CEO of Greenline Financial Technologies, said of the new
release, "The VeriFIX(R) 4.5 release illustrates Greenline's continued
commitment to innovation in the FIX testing space. By enabling support for
FAST encoded FIX, VeriFIX(R) 4.5 aggregates the testing functions for both
order entry and market data paths. We believe this integration is essential
for the FIX community as it rapidly adopts FAST for market data messaging."
