On what OpenVAS is based on to determine the value of Qod ?

Every vulnerability test (VT) defines a QoD. Its value depends on the reliability of the detection. For example web server banners have a low QoD and local version checks have a high QoD.

You need to check this manually, it is not generic at all. You are just less certain that is is evident with a low QoD.
