AppScan Activity Recorder — WW88

AppScan Activity Recorder simplifies web application security testing. It allows you to capture manual crawl, login, and multi-step data (traffic and actions) for an AppScan Dynamic Analysis scan.

Usage Instructions:
• Open a website to record its browsing activity in the Firefox browser.
• On the address bar, click the AppScan Activity Recorder extension icon to start recording the browsing activity.
• The AppScan extension icon blinks indicating progress in recording the activity.
• Tip: The extension icon’s tooltip displays the domain URL being recorded. This is particularly useful when you are accessing different sites in the same Firefox browser instance.
• Perform the browsing activity.
• Click the AppScan extension icon to stop recording.
Or
• Click Cancel in the Firefox debugging message dialog box to stop recording.
• The browser prompts you to save the recording in *.dast.config file format.

Options page:
Access the options page by right-clicking the extension icon in the toolbar and then selecting options. Or navigate to the options page by, first, opening Firefox://extensions, locating the "AppScan Activity Recorder" extension, clicking Details, and then selecting the "Extension options" link.
• Open debugger window: This option shows the user activity in a separate window.
• Enable encryption: This option allows encryption of the recording to prevent exposure of recorded information.
Note: Encrypted recorded files will be supported in HCL AppScan Enterprise version 10.4.0 and above and HCL AppScan on Cloud. Any HCL AppScan Integrations as for e.g. HCL AppScan Jenkins and HCL AppScan Azure DevOps Plugins, which integrate with HCL AppScan Enterprise and HCL AppScan on Cloud will also support encrypted recorded files for DAST Scans execution.
