Many organizations are now embracing fuzz testing as a proven way to ensure the resilience of the products that they deliver. Fuzz testing allows the tester to rapidly generate a large number of unexpected inputs to understand the impact on both performance and stability.
With the growing application awareness in infrastructure products, Fuzz testing is no longer just limited to specific standards-based protocols. With XML, Instance Messaging, Peer to Peer and other application protocols, fuzz testing needs to evolve to include both standards-based and proprietary protocols.
Mu's Test solution provides comprehensive fuzz testing for both standards-based protocols as well as automatically generating fuzz tests from service traffic. By leverage the service traffic from the products and the community (http://www.pcapr.net), Mu is the only comprehensive solution for fuzz testing. This means that the test teams no longer have to wait for the test tool vendors to provide specific fuzz tests for their applications.
Denial of Service is a common problem with IP Services where outages in critical services result in revenue loss. Mu's Test solution allows the tester to rapidly generate application Denial of Service tests by directly transforming packets within service traffic into DoS generators. The DoS tests executed by the Mu solution combines DoS generation with active monitoring of service health so that unintended interactions between the control/data planes or seemingly unrelated services can be easily uncovered.
