Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by only providing instructions and examples using the Azure Portal (a web UI) and the nslookup command from a generic 'command prompt' without specifying or illustrating Linux or cross-platform alternatives. The testing step assumes the use of nslookup from a Windows command prompt, with no mention of Linux shells, tools like dig, or cross-platform command syntax. There are no CLI (az cli, PowerShell, or bash) examples, and no explicit Linux guidance is provided.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit instructions for verifying DNS records from Linux/macOS terminals, such as using dig (e.g., `dig test.contoso.com`) in addition to nslookup.
- Clarify that nslookup is available on both Windows and Linux, or provide installation instructions for Linux users if needed.
- Where 'command prompt' is mentioned, specify that these steps can be performed from Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, or Linux/macOS terminal.
- Consider adding Azure CLI (az cli) examples for creating and managing DNS records, which are cross-platform.
- Add a note or section for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity and inclusivity.
