Complete
Having completed the steps of the wizard, you now decide how and when to start the scan that you have configured.
About this task
If you select one of the options that starts a scan right away, you can also elect to run Scan Expert before the main scan starts. Scan Expert logs into your application and performs a short, preliminary scan to evaluate the settings you have configured. It then suggests configuration changes if necessary. Incorporating these suggestions (automatically or manually) can greatly increase the efficiency of the main scan.
Procedure
Select one of the options:
- Start scan: Start a full scan of the application (Explore stage followed by Test stage).
- Start with automatic Explore only: Explore the application, but do not proceed to the Test stage. You can start the Test stage later by clicking Scan > Test only.
- Start with Manual Explore: The browser will open and you can manually explore your site by clicking on links and completing fields. AppScan will record the results to use in the Test stage, which you can start by clicking Scan > Test only.
- I will start the scan later: Close the wizard without starting a scan. The next time you start a scan, this template will be used.
