Burp Suite Professional Full review

The main window displays all the available tools you can choose from and sets them up the way you want.
Designed to work with your browser, the application functions as an HTTP proxy server, so all HTTP / s traffic from your browser travels through the utility. So, if you want to perform any tests, you need to configure your browser to work with it.

The first thing you need to do is to confirm that the application proxy server listener is active. Just go to the “Proxy” tab and see the “Proxy Listeners” section. You should see the entry in the table with the “Run” checkbox. The second thing you need to do is to configure your browser to use the application’s proxy listener as its HTTP proxy server. Finally, you need to configure the browser so that it can send HTTP requests through the application without problems.

The above mentioned utility gives you full control over all the actions that you want to perform and get detailed information and analysis about the web applications under test. Using tools such as Intruder, Repeater, Sequencer and Comparer you can easily perform various actions.

With Spider, you can scan the application to find its content and functionality. You can add a new area by selecting the protocol and specifying a hostname or IP range. The utility then tracks all transmitted bytes and requests in the queue.
The Intruder tool allows you to execute attacks on web applications. Just set the hostname and port number, define one or more sets of useful data and everything will be ready. You can also use the HTTP protocol by checking the appropriate checkbox on the Target tab.

Another tool that automates testing tasks is called Sequencer, which analyzes the quality of randomness in application session tokens. First, you need to download at least 100 tokens and then capture all requests.
In general, Burp Suite Free Edition allows you to achieve everything you need in a reasonable way. It helps you record, analyze or playback your web requests while browsing the web application.
