Hi all,

i ve been following the group for a week now. I am in the process of
defining standards for Application testing. Most of them would be Web based
applications. Can you help me to begin with some framework on which i can
start building. My concerns are

  1. Defining the methodology
  2. Defining the tools that would be required

Thanks

With warm regards

Hello Claudie,

I would suggest you start on with Owasp as your framework and right now I
would suggest you work on manual testing rather than automation.

Hackers handbook can give you a good start to that. Also working on
platforms like Webgoat and Dvwa would give you a good practical experience.
For me Burp Suite has been the best tool and for automation there are lits
of them both closed and open source.

Hello.

Please, check OWASP Testing Guide.
I can also recomend you a reading of the Web Application Hacker´s Handbook.
