Thanks, looks promising.

One of my challanges was understanding the the zoo of tests OpenVAS would run and trying to reliably select which ones to apply. Did you, or anyone here, ever spot a way of outputting all the tests (nmap scripts etc.) that a particular run would trigger (but without actually running them)

Sadly no. We tried to figure out a way to reliably and permanently disable a whole suit of test scripts, but that got surprisingly fiddly.

I think there might be a way to choose categories to include/exclude but haven't had the time to actually investigate.
