A web application tester is needed to break into or find possible exploits in different computer systems and software. You are expected to run a number of tests, generally based around application and network penetration, and fill out assessment reports about what was discovered. Test will often be pre-determined as well as designing your own a large portion of the time, which requires creativity and imagination. A superb level of technical knowledge and know-how will be called upon. You must have strong programming background and experience with manual testing of application security in a live production environment (i.e., experience that is limited to a pure tool-based penetration testing approach is not sufficient).
