Cross Site Scripting Assertion
The Cross Site Scripting assertion checks the response for content revealing system information. It checks the response for injection strings similar to the parameter ones. It also allows you to prepare a script which will create a URL list to check each token individually.
Availability
The assertion is available only in security tests. Use this assertion with the Cross Site Scripting security scan.

Setting up properties
Select Check Immediate Response to check the response right after starting the script.

Then, create a custom script to check for XSS vulnerabilities on REST and SOAP individual pages which do not allow you to view the immediate responses in a browser.
