Answer 1

RTS Realtime Systems is a well-known trading platform. It is written in Java, though.

When you are searching for testing tools, try to search for the term backtesting and algorithmic trading. I came up with this result: PyAlgoTrader

Answer 2

Quantopian is a great solution. It lets you upload and test your algorithms on large data sets, while keeping them private or sharing with the community.
