A method of testing operation of an automated banking machine system is
provided. The method may comprise storing in a data store data
representative of a simulated automated banking machine, at least one
condition which occurs at the machine and at least one action to be
carried out responsive to the condition. The method may further comprise
inputting an input representing the condition at the machine and
indicating through a display, responsive to the stored data, the at least
one action being carried out responsive to simulating the condition at the
machine. The method may also include carrying out the at least one action
responsive to operation of the computer. The method may include simulating
responsive to the input, that the machine has generated a message
indicative of the condition. The method may include providing a further
input which prevents performance of the carrying out step.
