K GROUP EMV TESTING SUITEExplore. Validate. Troubleshoot.
Explore. Validate. Troubleshoot.
Document the evidence.
A focused engineering workspace for payment-card teams—from card discovery and EMV data inspection to APDU analysis, offline PIN verification, adaptable PVT checks and technical reporting.
Discover applications
Enumerate payment applications and organize card data before deeper validation.
Search EMV tags
Find values by tag reference, descriptive name or filtered card data.
Inspect APDU traffic
Follow command and response exchanges chronologically for low-level troubleshooting.
Verify offline PIN
Run selected-AID plaintext offline PIN checks and capture clear test evidence.
Run adapted PVT checks
Execute focused profiles with passed, failed and applicability verdicts per control.
Export technical reports
Create standalone HTML evidence and editable Word output for review and support.
CARD EXPLORERSee what is really
See what is really
on the card.
Start with a full explore, then move directly from application-level information to detailed EMV data and transaction evidence.
CARD EXPLORER
Discover card applications with a full explore
Use the Explorer workflow to identify applications and organize the card's technical data into a practical validation view.
- Application and AID discovery
- Structured card-data overview
- A clear starting point for personalization checks
TAG ANALYSIS
Find tags the way engineers work
Move between filter-based discovery, tag-reference search and name search. The tag tree keeps values, source and explanation together so investigations stay readable.
- Search by tag reference
- Search by descriptive name
- Filter application data quickly
VALIDATION & TROUBLESHOOTINGTurn raw exchanges into
Turn raw exchanges into
actionable test results.
Inspect the APDU sequence, validate offline PIN behavior and execute targeted EMV checks without losing the context of the card under test.
APDU ANALYSIS
APDU transaction flow
Follow the dialogue between terminal and card command by command. The flow view makes it easier to identify where a transaction diverges and what the card returned.
- Chronological command / response flow
- Low-level evidence for troubleshooting
- Included in exported technical reports
OFFLINE PIN
Offline PIN verification
Select the AID, enter the test PIN and verify directly with the chip. The result is captured as part of the card validation evidence.
- Selected-AID PIN verification
- Clear pass/fail result
- Report-ready PIN verification section
PVT CHECKS
Adaptable PVT scenarios
Choose an adapted profile for the card and run focused checks. Individual controls receive clear verdicts, helping teams isolate personalization or profile inconsistencies.
- Selectable EMV test profiles
- Passed, failed and applicability verdicts
- Detailed check-by-check evidence
TECHNICAL REPORTING
Reports made for engineers—and for sharing
Package exploration, validation results and transaction evidence into a standalone HTML report or an editable Word document.
- HTML evidence with card and test data
- Editable Word engineering report
- Transaction-flow and PIN evidence
