Having followed the testing techniques within WebGoat, a tester should be able to:

  • Understand the high-level interaction processes within a web-application
  • Determine information in client visible data that can be useful in an attack
  • Identify and understand data and user interactions which may expose the application to attack
  • Perform tests against those interactions to expose flaws in their operation
  • Execute attacks against the application to demonstrate and exploit vulnerabilities
