from the security-testing point of view its not necessary to execute any script .. because:
IF input
"<script>thingstodo();</script>"
LEADS TO output
"<script>thingstodo();</script>"
the application is definitively vulnerable !!!
and it is a confuguration-issue to check for all "known" and "unknown" script-tags and -objects !!
nice day,
