I wouldn't want to restate a whole bunch of points I made downthread (we think scanners degrade manual testing, we're not opposed to automation but instead only to automation that actually flags findings, we grind up the bones of candidates to fertilize the fungus we use for our pentest "trips", &c).
It would be fun to have this debate somewhere that wasn't 10 comments deep into an old thread.
I don't actually know you, or who you work for, so please don't think I could be calling you out as a bad tester. We just don't test with automated scanners. We're not the only shop that doesn't use scanners. It's just the way we work.
