Improvement Suggestion for HTTP Analyzer Testing #515

Open mrrobot40404 opened 6 months ago

mrrobot40404 commented 6 months ago

Current State: The existing test suite for the check_suspicious_user_agents function in the HTTP Analyzer module covers basic scenarios such as detecting suspicious user agents. However, the test suite lacks comprehensive coverage for various edge cases and potential vulnerabilities.

Proposed Changes: To improve the test coverage and ensure robustness of the HTTP Analyzer module, I suggest expanding the test suite to include the following scenarios:

1) Edge Cases Testing:

2) Negative Testing:

3) Boundary Testing:

4) Regression Testing:

5) Performance Testing:

Additional Considerations:

Proposed Test Plan: I propose the following additional test cases to enhance the test coverage for the check_suspicious_user_agents function:

1) Test with empty user agent string. 2) Test with extremely long user agent strings. 3) Test with non-string user agent inputs. 4) Test with user agents containing substrings similar to suspicious substrings but not considered suspicious. 5) Test with user agents containing special characters, Unicode characters, or control characters. 6) Regression test for existing scenarios. 7) Performance testing with a large dataset of HTTP requests.

Expected Outcome: By implementing the proposed changes and executing the expanded test suite, I aim to achieve:
