# Testing setup specifications

> Review the hardware specifications for the FlexiCapture 12 versus 11 ABBYY bench test: server, database, FileStorage, Processing Station, and backend roles.

The tests were carried out in ABBYY’s own enterprise environment using the testing methodology described above.

We used a standard batch of 69 grayscale pages from the SingleEntryPoint project.
