Hello @wlewis629584 (Community Member) ,
Veracode Manual Penetration Testing (otherwise known as MPT) involves one or more Veracode penetration testers who perform tests and simulate real-life attacks. Veracode has various types of MPT tests based on their test type, methodology, and vulnerability. We have a Help Article that outlines this information: https://help.veracode.com/r/c_understanding_manual
After reading the Help Article, if you want to request an MPT, you can contact your Veracode account manager.
