According to FIME, AMEX will provide waivers for some 4.0.3 test cases. When we contacted FIME, we’ve had the reply below.
Hello Berkay,
We confirm it's still the same this issue in CAS-27945 that has been discovered recently and our lab has received an answer from AMEX. We confirm there is a current issue related to this profile 35.
The list of tests which this issue applies is the following: CAA1_PROC_35, CAA1_PROC_36, CAA1_PROC_38, CAA1_PROC_39, CAA1_PROC_40, CVM_PROC_10, CVM_PROC_85, MOBILE_CVM_PROC_33, PRO_RES_PROC_80, RR_PROC_74,RR_PROC_76, ONLINE_PROC_82
The answer from AMEX is the following one:
**********
There is an issue with Multi-Configuration Kernel Profile (MCKP) 35 for the mentioned test cases below, when ALL of the following conditions are met:
The Terminal/Kernel can support configurable transaction modes i.e. EMV and MS Mode or EMV Mode Only as declared in the ICS, AND
The test cases are executed under Multi-Configuration Kernel (MCK) Profile 35, which means the Terminal/Kernel is configured in EMV Mode Only, AND
The cert test tool returns a CARD/MOBILE Magstripe (MS) Only AIP
As a result of the above conditions, the Terminal/Kernel will terminate the transaction prematurely when the Terminal/Kernel is configured in EMV Mode Only and the returned AIP indicates MS Mode Only. Although this is correct terminal behavior, it does not align with the expected pass criteria specified in the test cases resulting in a failure (false negative).
There is a fix planned for this, in the next test plan release, which will occur later this year.
In the interim, please continue to execute these test cases, even though they may fail. We will approve them with waivers, when issuing the level 2 certification LoA.

Hoping it will help you to continue your tests. If you need more details, I suggest you to contact AMEX to get more details if needed.
