Abstract
Background: Software testing and software security have become one of the most important parts of an application. Many studies have explored each of these topics but there is a gap wherein the relation of software security and software testing in general has not been explored. Objective: This study aims to conduct a systematic literature review to capture the current state-of-the-art in software testing related to security. Methods: The search strategy obtains relevant papers from IEEE Xplore and ScienceDirect. The results of the search are filtered by applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The search results identified 50 papers. After applying the inclusion/exclusion criteria, we identified 15 primary studies that discuss software security and software testing. We found approaches, aspects, references, and domains that are used in software security and software testing. Conclusion: We found certain approach, aspect, references, and domain are used more often in software security testing Keywords: Software security, Software testing, Security testing approach, Security threats, Systematic literature review
