A new plug in to soapUI is available; the ISO8583 graphical testing tool. The tool, produced by Verhás és Verhás Szoftver Manufaktúra Kft makes it possible for the users to test ISO-8583 based systems. In other words: test ATM's.

The plug in is a very handy bridge between soapUI and JPos, making it possible for financial system testers to use the testing framework of soapUI to do

ISO-8583 testing.

Verhas also presents the plug-in in a video here
