Popis: Web application development companies should ensure the high quality of their products. This can be achieved through high quality of the software development lifecycle. Web applications are mostly running on the Internet and are being exposed to many security threats and malicious operations. The mission of EUCISE2020 project (EUropean test bed for the maritime Common Information Sharing Environment in the 2020 perspective) is to enhance interoperability between systems and networks. The interconnections must be established in a decentralized way using cutting-edge technologies. Hence, it requires innovative and practical solutions from the web development companies. The research problem is being addressed with the Stanford Research Institute NABC (Needs, Approach, Benefits and Competition) method. Our approach is to conceptualize a testing scenario for the web application development process. The concept utilizes the International Telecommunication Union recommended standard security framework (ITU-T X.805) in the context of test automation for end-to-end communications. This study presents a new holistic solution in feature driven fashion. As a result, we propose that building acceptance test scenarios using ITU-T X.805 guidelines in Software Development Lifecycle is a sustainable approach.
