A VA scan includes one or more tests. A test comprises specific checks to perform against the database.
In addition to using the predefined (out-of-the-box) VA tests, you can create customized VA tests to suit the needs of your organization. These custom tests can be added to the preconfigured test groups.
VA tests are normally created by advanced users only. We recommended to create VA tests only after running VA scans several times and becoming deeply familiar with Vulnerability Manager capabilities.
Custom tests can be assigned to the custom or data discovery categories.
