Presentation: "Fuzz-Testing Rails Apps with Tarantula"

Time: Monday 15:15 - 16:00

Location: To be announced

Abstract: Tarantula is a Rails plugin for doing easy, repeatable fuzz testing of Rails applications. Tarantula crawls your application, supplying random inputs at every turn and looking for signs of trouble. It can be used to regularly check for many kinds of error handling issues, cross-site scripting and SQL injection vulnerabilities, and more mundane things like invalid HTML. This talk will discuss how Tarantula works, how to use it, and how to make it a regular part of your testing strategy.
