iExploder v1.5 - Web Browser Quality Assurance Tester
iExploder is like a fire hydrant full of bad HTML and CSS code to test the stability and security of web browsers. Available as a standalone webserver or CGI script, it continuously feeds browsers bad data in the hope that they will eventually crash. It is designed to run for hours, or even days until the browser crashes.
iExploder was initially written as a QA tool for the Mozilla Project to test the Firefox 1.0 release, and is now included and used by Apple’s Webkit project.
