What users say
On r/Pentesting, a commenter groups XBOW with tools that attack the running application, which they prefer to code scanners sold as pentesting.
That thread is skeptical of the category. It does not describe a named XBOW miss.
“You should be choosing a tool that actually tests in runtime. Aka software like xbow, mindfort, etc.”
