Test Web Apps with Burp Suite
Manual web security testing can be slow without a repeatable Burp workflow. This skill guides proxy setup, request replay, scope control, scanning, and reporting.
Stop for confirmation before installing.
Review the plan and obtain explicit user consent before changing files.

Test it
Using "burp-suite-web-application-testing". I need to test my staging login form with Burp Repeater.
Expected outcome:
A step-by-step Repeater workflow with scope checks, request capture steps, response comparison guidance, and evidence notes.
Using "burp-suite-web-application-testing". Help me prepare a Burp Professional scan for an internal application.
Expected outcome:
A scan preparation checklist covering authorization, target scope, scan depth, rate limits, monitoring contacts, and result review.
Using "burp-suite-web-application-testing". I found a parameter that changes server responses.
Expected outcome:
A controlled validation plan that compares baseline and modified requests, records impact, and avoids destructive changes.
Security Audit
High RiskThe static command, network, and filesystem hits are Markdown examples or Burp local proxy references, not executable code in the skill. The remaining concern is semantic: the skill provides dual-use exploitation and credential attack workflows that require stronger authorization and lab-only framing.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Prepare an authorized web test
Set proxy, scope, and browser settings before capturing application traffic.
Validate a suspected defect
Replay a captured request in Repeater and compare responses after controlled parameter changes.
Review scan findings
Use Burp issue details to document evidence, impact, and remediation steps.
Try These Prompts
Help me configure Burp Suite for an authorized test of my staging web application. Include scope, proxy, and certificate steps.
Guide me through reviewing Burp HTTP history for an in-scope application and choosing requests for manual testing.
Create a Repeater workflow to test one authorized parameter change and record response differences without affecting production data.
Build a Burp Suite testing plan for an authorized assessment with scope rules, scan settings, Intruder limits, and evidence notes.
Best Practices
- Confirm written authorization and target scope before capturing or modifying traffic.
- Use Burp scope filters before scans, Intruder runs, or repeated manual requests.
- Document every meaningful request, response, impact statement, and remediation recommendation.
Avoid
- Testing production systems without approved scope, contacts, and change windows.
- Running Intruder or scans without rate limits and monitoring awareness.
- Treating automated scanner results as final without manual verification.
