Fuzz Testing

Fuzz Testing is a software testing technique that involves the automated, systematic input of malformed or unexpected data into a program to discover vulnerabilities, errors, or crashes by monitoring for abnormal behavior, thereby distinguishing it from other testing methods through its reliance on random or semi-random input generation to probe program robustness.
