Security Test Case

A documented test that verifies a specific security requirement or control behaves as intended.

Definition

Security test cases include preconditions, steps, input data and expected secure results. They trace back to requirements via the RTM and should be automated in CI where possible to catch regressions.

Example

TC-114 verifies that admin functions require MFA and that a non-MFA session receives a step-up prompt.

Exam tip

Traceability from requirement to test is a CSSLP theme.
