“We don’t do security testing. That’s the job of the Pen Test team!” You’ve probably heard that before, right? Not recently though I hope, because if we’re all responsible for quality now, then we’re all responsible for security too – and the vast majority of modern development teams advocate a continuous approach to not only functional testing, but also to non-functional areas like performance and, the focus of this article, security. This article introduces 10 web security testing tools every tester and developer should know to get the job done.

Every week many teams switch from the various available JIRA add-ons to TestRail, our fully-featured modern test management tool in combination with our own native JIRA test management add-on integration.

With more and more teams switching to agile development practices, adopting continuous integration and deployment techniques, and with ever and fast changing requirements, the role of testers and the expectation of testing teams evolve as well. Teams often don’t have the luxury anymore to carefully plan test strategies and tests for all new features in advance. Combined with traditional testing techniques, exploratory testing and session-based test management are great ways to make the best use of your time.
