Dual Security Testing Model for Web Applications

In recent years, web applications have evolved from small websites into large multi-tiered applications. The quality of web applications depends on the richness of contents, well structured navigation and most importantly its security. Web application testing is a new field of research so as to ensure the consistency and quality of web applications. In the last ten years there have been different approaches. Models have been developed for testing web applications but only a few focused on content testing, a few on navigation testing and a very few on security testing of web applications. There is a need to test content, navigation and security of an application in one go. The objective of this paper is to propose Dual Security Testing Model to test the security of web applications using UML modeling technique which includes web socket interface. In this research paper we have described how our security testing model is implemented using activity diagram, activity graph and based on this how test cases is generated.
