Quick start tests for Vulnerability Response

  • Rversion finale: Australia
  • Mis à jour 12 mars 2026
  • 2 minutes de lecture
  • Validate that Vulnerability Response still works after you make any configuration change such as apply an upgrade or develop an application. Copy and customize these quick start tests to pass when using your instance-specific data.

    The test execution property is disabled by default to prevent running tests on a production system. Run tests only on development, test, and other non-production instances. If demo data or demo accounts are created, all demo data should be removed prior to using the instance in non-production or production. See Run the Automated Test Framework (ATF) test suite for Vulnerability Response for more information about setting up and running the test suite for Vulnerability Response.

    Vulnerability Response quick start tests require activating the Vulnerability Response application (sn_vul) and loading the demo data.

    VR: Vulnerable Item life cycle Determine whether a user can successfully move a vulnerable item through its life cycle, and also determine whether a closed vulnerable item can be reopened. Madrid
    VR: Rollup Calculator Determine whether the rollup risk calculator can provide an overall risk score for an entire group of vulnerable items using the scores for all the vulnerable items in a vulnerability group. New York
    VR: Vulnerability Response Assignment Rules Determine whether a sample set of assignment rules can successfully auto-assign vulnerable items to an assignment group for remediation. New York
    VR: Vulnerability Calculators Test the vulnerability calculators. New York
    VR: CI Lookup - Qualys Create a new lookup rule with method "field_matching" called "Lookup By Network Adapter" for Qualys. Determine whether a configuration item is successfully matched in the Discovered Item table by network adapter and IP address with the new lookup rule. Orlando

    VR: Split Vulnerability Group Determine whether the user can successfully split a vulnerability group. Orlando
    VR: Update VG state when a CHG is cancelled. Determine whether the State field on a vulnerability group successfully transitions when a change request that is associated with the vulnerability group is cancelled. Orlando
    VR: Update VG state when a CHG transitions to Review. Determine whether the State field on a vulnerability group successfully transitions when a change request that is associated with it moves to the Review state. Orlando
    VR: CI Lookup - Rapid7 Test CI lookup using the existing Rapid7 Vulnerability Integration lookup rule, IP Address. Orlando
    VR: CI lookup - Qualys Test CI lookup by creating a new lookup rule for the Qualys Vulnerability Integration Orlando

    VR: False Positive Approval Workflow for VI Create a false positive exception request and verify that the approval process is working. Orlando
    VR: Application Vulnerability Response (AVR) Determine whether your rules and calculators are working correctly. Verify that updates are working. Orlando
    Remediation target rules: VI import test Tests VR remediation target rules during import. Paris
