Using Test Policies¶

Test policies are related with security tests. When creating a test iteration, each test policy will define and specify the FAST node behavior.

You can specify the test policy in the following ways:

Using the interface, if the test is created or copied, then select the policy from the Test policy drop-down list:
Specify the test policy ID:
- in the API request if the test is created or copied via API methods
- in the TEST_RUN_POLICY_ID environment variable if you manage testing in FAST node
You can find test policy ID in the list of policies on your Wallarm account for the EU cloud or the US cloud.

Default test policy

FAST automatically creates and applies Default Policy. This policy tests an application for typical vulnerabilities by checking the most commonly used request points.

Please note that the settings of the default test policy cannot be changed.
