Re: Testing PHP – Security Testing

One of the aspects to take care of is login page security testing namely validation of userid and password has it been done without any loopholes for error or hacking into the system. Some other things like per page security checks and so on can be done based on the application which is taken for testing.

Hi timmy,

PHP will come under the web application, so we have to concentrate more on SQL and Java injection. other than this we have to do penetrate testing for the login page.

Re: Testing PHP – Security Testing

well, you have to test first for the javascript functionalities used in your application..
Second thing is url testing..I mean directly putting login url of diffrent accounts..there should be validations on these test points..
