whatever the input u've given it should be encrypted & should not allow the user to copy it ok if caps lock is on it should message the user that caps lock is on and it also depends on the require ments

Field display should be Encrypted. AND limit the number of time user enters wrong password. For example with same user-id, the user should be allowed to enter wrong password only 3 times,and after that account should be disabled for some time, to protect password hacking.

Apart from all the valid points above we can also do the following.

We must check if the address bar reflecting the password, means in J2ee application every message is sent from address bar.

Points to be considered:

1) Get method

2)Post method (SSL) used.

I would say during the password field testing, the best focusing points would be encryption and masking (or at least having a masking option, especially since password testing is part of usabilitiy testing)
