WPScan Testing – RSpec Unit Tests for WordPress Security Scanning

The WPScan testing suite demonstrates a comprehensive unit testing approach using RSpec as its primary testing framework. With 114 test cases, the repository showcases thorough testing of WordPress security scanning functionality, including dynamic component detection, user enumeration, and security vulnerability assessment. The WPScan unit tests particularly excel at validating core scanning behaviors and ensuring reliable WordPress target analysis. Qodo Tests Hub provides developers with deep insights into WPScan's testing patterns, making it easier to understand how to properly test security scanning tools. Through interactive test exploration features, developers can examine how WPScan implements RSpec testing for various scanning modules, learn best practices for testing WordPress security tools, and leverage real-world examples of security-focused test cases. This repository serves as an excellent learning resource for implementing robust testing in security-focused applications.
