Welcome
Welcome to the documentation for HCL AppScan Standard version 10.4.0
Getting started
This section provides a short tour of basic product features and procedures, including using the wizard to set up a scan.
Configuration
You configure a scan by choosing settings that best describe your application, and the kind of testing you want.
Manual exploring
Manual exploring enables you to explore specific parts of your application, filling in fields and forms as you go. This can be a way of ensuring that particular areas of the site are covered, and that AppScan has the information needed to complete forms correctly.
Scanning
Learn how to start a scan, and what happens during the scan; how to manually manipulate the Explore stage, and how to export the results of a scan.
Data
Data view is populated with information about the structure of the site during the Explore stage of the scan.
Issues
Issues view provides access to the results of a scan. You can view results at a high level or select specific tests or objects and access more details. These details include how to fix, requests/responses, and differences between the test variants that resulted in issues. You can manipulate the severity of issues, resend tests (with or without modifications), and create reports based on Issues.
Reports
This section describes how to generate reports from the scan results.
Tools
This section explains how to use additional tools provided with HCL AppScan Standard.
Integrations
This section describes integrations of other applications with AppScan Standard:
- AppScan on Cloud
  This section describes ways AppScan Standard can interact with HCL AppScan on Cloud, to scan apps on the cloud.
  - Creating a scan in AppScan on Cloud
    You can upload an AppScan Standard scan or template file (SCAN or SCANT) to AppScan on Cloud (ASoC) to run a new scan on the cloud.
  - Uploading scan results to AppScan on Cloud
    You can upload AppScan Standard scan results to AppScan on Cloud (ASoC), add them to an application, and view the results there. The results will be aggregated with the rest of the application results, in ASoC. However, you cannot run the scan in ASoC.
- AppScan Enterprise
  This section describes ways AppScan Standard and Enterprise editions can interact.
- Automation Frameworks
  You can use scripts written for your QA automation framework (such as Selenium) to create Manual Explore recordings for an AppScan scan.

AppScan on Cloud

This section describes ways AppScan Standard can interact with HCL AppScan on Cloud, to scan apps on the cloud.

You must have an AppScan on Cloud account to use this feature, and have created at least one application in it.

If your site is not accessible from the Internet, you must have already created an AppScan Presence, with access to the site and to the Internet, for AppScan on Cloud to connect with. (for details see the AppScan on Cloud documentation.

Note: AppScan must have access to domain: https://cloud.appscan.com/. If a proxy is defined in Windows, AppScan will use it when accessing the domain, and if the proxy requires authentication, a pop-up will appear and you will need to supply valid credentials.
