Configuring
Learn how to configure the product.
Configuring applications and projects
Before you scan, you must configure applications and projects. This section explains the Application Discovery Assistant, New Application Wizard, and the New Project Wizard. You will learn how to configure attributes for AppScan® Source for Analysis. In addition, this section teaches you how to add existing applications and projects for scanning - and how to add files to projects.
Configuring applications
You can use the New Application Wizard or the Application Discovery Assistant to create applications. The Application Discovery Assistant automates application setup for you, whereas the New Application Wizard allows you to add applications, guiding you through the configuration process. The wizard helps you manually create a project or add existing projects to an application. This section describes these two methods for adding application and basic configuration tasks.
Adding existing applications
Existing applications can be added for scanning by dragging and dropping them into the Explorer view - or by using the Add Application action. In addition, WAR and EAR files can be added by dragging and dropping them into the Explorer view.
