Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias in its guidance for API testing tools. PowerShell and Visual Studio Code (both commonly associated with Windows environments) are listed before Linux-native tools like curl, and PowerShell is specifically called out with a direct link to its documentation. Microsoft Edge's Network Console is also mentioned, which is primarily a Windows browser. There are no Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., bash, wget), and no explicit mention of Linux package managers or command-line environments. While curl is included, it is listed last, and no Linux-centric workflow or tool is described in detail.
Recommendations
  • List cross-platform and Linux-native tools (e.g., curl, httpie, wget) before or alongside Windows tools in the API testing section.
  • Provide example commands for both PowerShell and bash/zsh shells when demonstrating API calls or template deployments.
  • Mention Linux package managers (apt, yum) for installing tools like curl or httpie.
  • Include references to Linux text editors (vim, nano) and JSON editors (jq) for template editing and validation.
  • Explicitly state that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide parity in instructions where platform differences exist.
