About the MASTG Tests
The MASTG "Atomic Tests" are a new addition to the MAS project. They are a collection of small, individual tests that can be used to assess the security and privacy of a mobile application. Each test is designed to be simple and focused on a single issue. The goal is to make it easier for developers and security professionals to identify and fix issues in their mobile applications.
Tests are organized into categories based on the OWASP MASVS and have a weakness assigned from the OWASP MASWE.
Each test includes:
- Overview: A brief description of the test.
- Steps: A set of steps to follow to identify the weakness in a mobile application.
- Observation: A description of the results of running the test against an application.
- Evaluation: Specific instructions for evaluating the results of the test.
Each test comes with a collection of demos that demonstrate the weakness in a sample application. These demos are written in markdown and are located in the Demos section of the MASTG.
