Replicator
Summary: PortSwigger's Replicator is a Burp extension that lets a pen tester package findings into a Replicator file, each containing a request, associated session rules or macros, and logic to detect the vulnerability's presence. Developers open the file in Burp to reproduce the issues, and once fixes are made Replicator confirms the original attack vector is blocked, though a retest is still recommended in case alternative vectors remain exploitable.
Bottom line: The tool confirms only that the specific attack vector from the pen test is now blocked, and PortSwigger itself notes a retest is still recommended because alternative vectors may remain exploitable - so a passing Replicator check is not the same as a clean finding.
