Configuring Rational AppScan Tester Edition

Rational® AppScan Tester Edition is designed to help organizations distribute responsibility for security testing among multiple stakeholders and to help users test for vulnerabilities such as Cross-site scripting, buffer overflows, and SQL injection early in the Web application delivery lifecycle.

Before you can run security test scripts in Quality Manager, there are several steps you must perform in AppScan Tester Edition:

  1. Install AppScan Tester Edition and run the Configuration Wizard.
  2. Ensure that the Launch Default Settings Wizard check box is selected when the Configuration Wizard has completed.
  3. Run the Default Settings Wizard . The Default Settings Wizard helps you configure two-way communication with Rational Quality Manager. It helps you:
    1. Create users and security permissions.
    2. Create server groups and test policies.
    3. Create scan templates.
    4. Configure defect tracking integration.
You are now ready to create test plans and test scripts for your AppScan Tester Edition security tests.
