Scripting languages can be used by pen testers to help automate the execution of common tasks. It can also be used to increase the depth and scope of testing coverage, while enabling testers to conduct efficient scans and analysis effectively. In this course, you'll learn the basic concepts of scripting and software development. Explore how scripting can play a role in data manipulation and information gathering processes and discover the basic concepts of logic constructs including loops, conditionals, Boolean operators, string operators, and arithmetic operators. Discover other basic concepts of scripting including libraries, classes, and functions. This course is one of a collection that helps prepare learners for the CompTIA PenTest+ (PT0-003) certification exam.
