Web Application Penetration Testing is a comprehensive security assessment designed to identify, validate, and exploit vulnerabilities within web applications by simulating real-world attack scenarios. The testing evaluates application logic, authentication and authorization mechanisms, session management, input validation, and interactions with backend services such as databases and APIs.
The assessment combines automated vulnerability discovery with extensive manual testing to uncover issues that automated tools cannot detect, including business logic flaws, chained attack paths, and privilege escalation vulnerabilities. 
Testing is aligned with OWASP Top 10, OWASP ASVS, GIGW 3.0 Security Requirements, CERT-In guidelines, and CREST methodologies, ensuring regulatory and audit acceptance.
