Background and Motivation

History Behind Project The Testing guide originated in 2003 with Dan Cuthbert as one of the original editors. It was handed over to Eoin Keary in 2005 and transformed into a wiki. Being a wiki it is easier for people to contribute and should make updating much easier. Matteo Meucci has decided to take on the Testing guide and update it creating the OWASP Testing Guide v2.

Now it's time to create a new Guide, improving each chapter and adding the new testing methodologies.

The OWASP Testing Guide is a defacto web application security assessment guide.
