Description:
Fuzzing has evolved into one of todays most effective approaches to test software security. To "fuzz," you attach a programs inputs to a source of random data, then systematically identify the failures that arise. An obvious requirement for a fuzzing tool is the capability to reproduce the results from both individual tests and test sequences. This is crucial for communicating test results to other persons or groups. As a fuzz tester, you should be able to provide your fuzzing tool with a list of malicious test case numbers knowing that the observed targets behavior will be exactly the same between test runs.
