The brief

The FCA requires existing testing capabilities used during a Proof of Concept to be provided as an on-demand, repeatable process in 2026.

The FCA requires a "testing-as-a-service" model, where a platform connects directly to the project system being built via API.

This integration requires two cadences of testing: 1.

On-Demand Testing: Accessible and configurable lightweight testing to monitor stability and performance, used to guide development.

2.Full System Testing: Detailed evaluation and validation performed on a regular cycle, or on demand, to ensure comprehensive assessment of all testing dimensions.
