software developer and solutions provider targeting the financial
services industry in China, today announced that it has been
awarded an extended contract by a National Commercial Bank customer

testing services, which include load and stress, reliability
testing, user acceptance testing, defect follow-up management and
overall testing, of the bank's next generation core banking system.

sophisticated testing solutions and strong industry knowledge. This
contract extension demonstrates the customer's recognition of the
quality of our industry-leading software testing services,"
commented Weizhou Lian, Chief Executive Officer of Longtop. "With
the acquisition of Jactus Labs we significantly increased our
footprint in professional testing, which offers promising
opportunities as our customers in the financial services industry
are keenly aware of the increased importance of testing." Safe
