  • Patent number: 9207920
    Abstract: A system for testing a software application receives one or more object spaces extracted from a development or runtime environment of the software application. The extracted object space includes information about various objects associated with the software application, its dependencies, and/or environment, and some of the objects may be dynamically created and/or modified. The extracted object space does not include any source code. A language dependent extraction component can extract the object space using introspections and/or reflection APIs. The extracted object can be translated into a language-independent format and can be analyzed to identify any vulnerabilities in the software application without access to the source code, compiled binary, and runtime environment of the software application.
