Over the last few decades, software security has become significant in parallel to general software testing. Previously, the scope of software security was relatively limited as compared to the software functionality. But now, in global software engineering, the scope and budget of software security are far more than its basic functionality. This has created a pressing need to devise the separate set of working boundaries between software quality testing, and software security testing in global software engineering. In the past literature, a massive number of software security testing methods has been devised. In this paper, a comprehensive literature review is presented on the recent global software security testing methods. In addition, the strength and limitation of each framework are discussed and analyzed. Finally, this work submits the open areas in the domain of global software security testing methods as one of the deliverables of this research work.
