    Hi,
    I'm no expert on security or testing but I would like to do some testing on a site I have been working on. Are there any useful tools anyone could suggest would help me with this?

    Thanks

    Would be interested in hearing about this too. Anyone know of any software (preferably free :) ) that can be used to check the security of a site?

    For regular QA testing, tools like Selenium and PHPUnit are worth a look.

    From the security side of things, it's the usual story. Validate all input, use up to date and properly configured Apache, PHP and MySQL. The PHP site has a good section on securing your PHP apps.

    Check out OWASP they have plenty of security related tools for this sort of requirement.
