Burp Suite is a web application penetration testing tool. It is used to intercept the connection between the client application (especially Browser) in any operating system (Mac, Windows, Linux, Android and iOS) and the server. It is the application layer testing tool. HTTPS connection can be viewed as plain connection using the Burp CA in the browser.
How the client talks with the server and what are the params used etc.. Used for finding the web application vulnerability and exploitation, fuzzing etc.,
Advantages are many, proxy history, tampering the data before request being forwarded to the server and lot more. Burp suite has given an excellent document for the freshers like me.

I have used the Burp in the Mac OS X.
127.0.0.1:8080 is the default port number at which burp program runs. We should configure it in
System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> Check both Web Proxy [HTTP] and Secure Web Proxy [HTTPS]
Enter the address as 127.0.0.1 and 8080 (No username and Password)
Make Sure the ByPass proxy settings for the Hosts & Domains are empty.
