[W3af-users] JavaScript Crawling: Beta testers wanted!

[Andres R. <and...@gm...>]

List,

    Its been a long time, and the list is very inactive, but if you've
been paying attention to the GitHub commit logs [0] you'll notice that
the project is very much alive and improving every day!

    At this point I'm looking for beta-testers for the initial
implementation of our JavaScript crawler. The crawler is based on
headless Chrome and can (at least for now) load a URL, click on all
page elements, and capture HTTP requests generated by Chrome using an
HTTP proxy.

    If you have a few minutes to spare please download the latest from
the `feature/js` branch:

git clone https://github.com/andresriancho/w3af.git
cd w3af
git checkout feature/js
virtualenv venv
. venv/bin/activate
./w3af_console

    That will prompt you to install all dependencies, please do so and
then follow the instructions in the chrome/README.md [1]. Make sure to
change the target in the scan script!

    The goal is to find issues with this new and beta feature. You'll
most likely get crashes, exceptions, scans that take a lot of time,
etc. Please report all those to w3af's issue tracker [2] to get them
fixed.

    Thanks!
