Wstg: Review/Fix "Testing for API.md"

Created on 28 Feb 2019  路  9Comments  路  Source: OWASP/wstg

OWASP/OWASP-Testing-Guide-v5#33 was merged without review and contains numerous errors or items which should be fixed/tweaked. Including (but not necessarily limited to):

  • Typos: Sate vs. State when elaborating on the acronym REST. moethods vs methods, reponses vs responses, etc.
  • Sentence fragments:

    • > Web application APIs following the REST style that called REST API.

    • > REST APIs using URIs (Uniform Resource Identifires) to access resources.

    • > HTTP headers are used in request and reponses.

    • etc

  • Formatting
  • Title caps
  • Reference consistency (86 or 96?)

RFC3886 URI - https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986

Thank for your review! Will fix later

No worries. This isn't a complete review by any means. Just wanted to ensure that the need for review/edits was tracked. (Hence the ticket.)

hi @kingthorin
Because of my heavy workload at company, can you help me fix/edit them?

Please assign me to this issue. I'll handle it in the coming week/weekend.

Consider it yours. I'm not able to assign it to you. Probably because of permissions/collaborators, etc.
I think we can trust that people will read the issue history before tackling something..... (Otherwise they'll learn a hard lesson I guess :grin: )

Please assign me to this issue. I'll handle it in the coming week/weekend.

you are welcome :dango:

@ThunderSon I just remind you about this case

I did not forget about it. I got side-tracked and I have been busy so far.
