A number of machine design studies, including 'nanobeams', sub-millimeter 'beta*' optics, SR rings, etc., require high accuracy on beam orbit and beam size, reliable evaluation of machine parameters, dynamic apertures, etc. This can only be achieved using high precision simulation tools. Stepwise ray-tracing methods belong in this category of tools, stochastic synchrotron radiation and its effects on an electron beam in a storage ring are simulated here in that manner. Benchmarking of the method against analytical model expectations, using a Chasman-Green cell, is presented. Ray-tracing reproduces very accurately beam parameters associated with synchrotron radiation damping. That makes the method a relevant tool in design studies regarding nanobeams, resonance factories and other e-p collider projects.
