Protocol test facilities

Testing the exchange of information for EDI interfaces

For energy market EDI interfaces, DNV has created facilities for testing the exchange of various types of information. These test facilities are able to test message exchange on several levels: process, transaction, semantics, syntax and transport.

It is also possible to create error and stress situations in order to see how the system responds. The test facilities support all standards currently in use, such as:

  • ESS
  • VDEW-MSCONS
  • EDIG@S
  • EDINE

Our test facilities are accessible over the Internet 24/7 to facilitate the use in the development and implementation phases. Transmission system operators use DNV’s facilities for certification of the EDI interfaces of other market players. A helpdesk is available to assist users with the debugging of their implementations.
