Mika - this looks similar to a fuzzing tool in security - what were you hoping to achieve with this project?
Are you detecting the response upon submitting a request?
- mikesmallhelp 3y agoHello! Thanks for the comment! Maybe my goals where both for security and normal web development testing. I'm personally software developer and cybersecurity is my hobby. First I thought I had unique idea, but one friend working in the infosec area told about Nessus etc tools. Then I thought I finish my tool and see if some users are interested. wacat detects a response HTTP code and if that is >= 400, it reports error. Then wacat can also detect error etc strings in the response page it they are configured. Maybe my main focus is in the normal web testing. I have found that companies don't have enough end-to-end testing and wacat is easy to use tool to do some kind of testing. Even smoke testing with the --only-links flag. wacat also supports CI pipeline with the --headless flag. BR, Mika
