## Historique du projet et usages

GoTestWAF is Wallarm's Go-based command-line tool for simulating API and OWASP-style attacks against web application firewalls, API gateways, IPS products, and related application-security controls.

### Historique du projet

The repository was created in January 2020. The README describes a scanner that generates malicious requests by combining payloads, encoders, and request placeholders, then records how the evaluated security solution handled those requests.

### Historique d'adoption

The project is packaged as a Docker image and a Homebrew formula, which matches its evaluation-tool use case: users can run it near the target application or security appliance without embedding it into application code.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users point GoTestWAF at an evaluated URL and run built-in test sets such as OWASP Top 10 and OWASP API, or supply custom YAML test cases. Reports can be generated locally, and releases in 2024 and 2025 emphasize report-format and validation work.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

For package catalogs, GoTestWAF is a niche but useful security-testing CLI: it packages repeatable malicious-request generation as a portable Go binary and container, rather than as a SaaS-only scanner.

### Chronologie

- 2020: Repository created.
- 2022: README badge identifies GoTestWAF with Black Hat Arsenal USA 2022.
- 2024: v0.4.19 and v0.5.x releases published through GitHub releases.
- 2025: v0.5.8 release fixed HTML report validation.

### Related projects

- OWASP test categories and API-security scenarios shape the bundled test cases.
- Wallarm publishes the project and Docker image for WAF and API-security evaluation workflows.
