Technika is a Firefox plugin <http://www.gnucitizen.org/projects/technika/>that
myself <http://gnucitizen.org/about/dk> and
pdp<http://gnucitizen.org/about/pdp>was toying with some months back.
The original idea behind this project was
to provide independent self-contained security tools based on JavaScript
which can be loaded and executed from the browser.

TS Framework is an automated web application testing framework that is
launched from the browser . . .

The advantages here over traditional security tools is that we utilize the
existing browser functionality instead of re-inventing the wheel. In other
words, Technika doesn't have to worry about network sockets, SSL libraries,
whether its OS independent and so on. Basically, anything the browser can
do, we can.
