Docs: Review outdated screenshots in AST documentation

  • Start this issue's title with Docs: or Docs feedback:.

Problem to solve

Some of the product screenshots in application security testing documentation are out of date. This can be confusing for users who reference the documentation and then compare what they see in GitLab.

Proposal

  1. Review all screenshots in the doc/user/application_security directory from GitLab versions < 16.
  2. For each of the screenshots found from step 1, remove or update them.

Who can address the issue

Anyone familiar with GitLab's application security testing features.
