Answer / satyaprasad

Cookie is small information stored in text file on user’s
hard drive by web server. This information is later used by
web browser to retrieve information from that machine.
Generally cookie contains personalized user data or
information that is used to communicate between different
web pages.

Test the application by enabling or disabling the cookies
in your browser options. Test if the cookies are encrypted
before writing to user machine. If you are testing the
session cookies (i.e. cookies expire after the sessions
ends) check for login sessions and user stats after session
end. Check effect on application security by deleting the
cookies.
