Fuzzing [Fuzz] Testing:
Fuzzing is a Black Box software testing technique, which basically consists in finding implementation bugs using malformed/semi-malformed data injection in an automated fashion.
In simple words,it is a software testing technique used to discover coding errors and security loopholes in software, operating systems or networks by inputting massive amounts of random data, called fuzz, to the system in an attempt to make it crash. If a vulnerability is found, a tool called a fuzz tester (or fuzzer), indicates potential causes. Fuzz testing offers a high benefit-to-cost ratio. Fuzz testing can often reveal defects that are overlooked when software is written and debugged.
