What you need for this book
As this is a book about Burp Suite, we need Burp Suite. Most of the topics can be covered using the free version, but some of the topics require the Burp Suite Pro version.
To use Burp Suite, which is an application written in Java, we need the Java Runtime Environment. While Java 7 should suffice, the software will run okay with Java 8 as well.
To follow the steps and try out web security testing, we require a modern web browser, such as Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, or others.
To try out Burp Extensions or attempt to write one would require Jython or JRuby based on the language you choose.
