Abstract: A method for identifying client states, receives a set of paths representative of a document object model (DOM) associated with a web page of a rich internet application and for each path in the set of paths received, extracts a subtree, as subtree X, for a current path. The method traverses all known sub-paths under the current path and delete corresponding subtrees from subtree X and reads contents of and determines states of subtree X to form a state X. The state X is added to a set of current states and responsive to a determination no more paths exist, returns the set of current states of the rich internet application.

Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for identifying a request invalidating a session excludes all marked logout requests of a Web application, crawls an identified next portion of the Web application and responsive to a determination, in one instance, that the state of the crawl is out of session, logs in to the Web application. The computer-implemented process further selects all crawl requests sent since a last time the crawl was in-session, excluding all marked logout requests and responsive to a determination that requests remain, crawls a selected next unprocessed request. Responsive to a determination, in the next instance, that state of the crawl is out of session and the selected request meets logout request criteria, the computer-implemented process marks the selected request as a logout request.

Abstract: Identifying sequential browsing operations includes receiving session data associated with a plurality of sessions, creating a reduced page for each page in a series of pages associated with a first session in the plurality of sessions, and creating a hash value associated with each reduced page for each page in the series of pages associated with the first session of the plurality of sessions. Responsive to a determination that the hash value of the first session is equivalent to the hash value of the second session, an associated page is identified as an equivalent page and the equivalent pages are merged to create a common sequence without a need to resend requests associated with the session data to a server.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for performing security testing. Information about successful payloads in payloads is determined by a computer system using crowd-sourced data in which a successful payload is a payload used in a successful attack. A set of popular payloads is determined by a computer system from the payloads using information about the successful payloads determined using the crowd-sourced data. Testing is focused by the computer system on the set of popular payloads based on a set of key features for the set of popular payloads.

Abstract: An approach is provided that automatically classify network traffic of web applications and services based on a dynamic analysis. The approach scans a resource that corresponds to a named network application and receives, as a result of the scan, network resource identifiers that are accessed by the named network application. Network traffic between users and network resources is monitored, with the monitoring resulting in a set of visited network resource identifiers. The set of resource identifiers is found by matching the visited network resource identifiers with the network resource identifiers returned by the scan. Each of the set of resource identifiers is then matched with the named application.

Abstract: Identifying equivalent JavaScript events includes receiving source code containing two JavaScript events for equivalency analysis, extracting an HTML element containing an event from each JavaScript event and analyzing the extracted HTML elements. Responsive to a determination that the HTML elements are of a same type according to equivalency criteria B, and responsive to a determination that the HTML elements have a same number of attributes according to equivalency criteria C, a determination is made whether JavaScript function calls of each JavaScript event are similar according to equivalency criteria A. Responsive to a determination that the JavaScript function calls are similar according to equivalency criteria A, and responsive to a determination that the other attributes of the HTML elements satisfy equivalency criteria D, the JavaScript events are identified as equivalent.

Abstract: Identifying unvisited portions of visited information to visit includes receiving information to crawl, wherein the information is representative of one of web based information and non-web based information, computing a locality sensitive hash (LSH) value for the received information, and identifying a most similar information visited thus far. Identifying unvisited portions of visited information further includes determining whether the LSH of the received information is equivalent to most similar information visited thus far and, responsive to a determination that the LSH of the received information is not equivalent to most similar information visited thus far, identifying a visited portion of the received information using information for most similar information visited thus far and crawling only unvisited portions of the received information.

Abstract: A computer-implemented process for identifying equivalent links on a page responsive to a determination that the crawler has not visited all required universal resource locators, locates a next URL to be crawled to form a current URL and processes the current URL to identify equivalent URLs. Responsive to a determination that the crawler has not visited the current URL, determine whether necessary to crawl all identified equivalent URLs and responsive to a determination that it is necessary to crawl all identified equivalent URLs, adding all equivalent URLs to a list of URLs to be crawled.

Abstract: Synchronizing requests with a respective context includes, responsive to a determination that there are more pages to explore, performing regular crawling operations for a current page, recording a current page in a list of explored pages and extracting links from the current page. Responsive to a determination that there are more links to extract, a next link to analyze is selected to form a selected link and responsive to a determination that there is a new request associated with the selected link, a new request identifier is created and saved as an entry in a hashmap. Responsive to a determination that there is not a new request associated with selected link, a request associated with the selected link is updated with a new link value when the link value differs.

Abstract: Technical solutions are described for testing a computer program product. An example method includes intercepting an instance of a request sent for execution by the computer program product, the request being one from a plurality of requests in a sequential flow. The method also includes storing a unique identifier for the request, and initializing a current test request index in response to the request being a first instance of a starting request of the sequential flow. The method also includes selecting a test task from a set of test tasks corresponding to the request in response to determining that the request is a current test-request based on an index of the request matching the current test request index. The method also includes modifying the instance of the request according to the selected test task, and sending the modified instance of the request to the computer program product for execution.
