Automation testing of firewall using Scapy / Fatin Nur Amirah Rohimi

Firewall tests must be performed to verify that the firewall works as specified. A test case generation approach is built in this project, identifying test cases based on the rule sequence of the firewall and using a real traffic database to prepare test packets. Test packets can be used or inserted...
