[bhavinkpatel]

Test Data / Request / Prerequisite

• Set a PORT variable in your environment. For the purposes of this assignment, we will define the port as 8088.
• Request (POST): curl -v -X POST -H "application/json" -d '{"password":"bhavinpatel"}' http://127.0.0.1:8088/hash -w "\n%{time_total}"
• Request (GET): curl -v -H "application/json" http://127.0.0.1:8088/hash/1 -w "\n%{time_total}\n"

Test Steps

1. Start application (/broken-hashserve_darwin)
2. Enter the POST request
3. Note identifier returned is 1
4. Enter the GET request

Expected Result

• Returned value is the base64 encoded password hash for the entered password (bhavinpatel) from the POST.

Received a 200 response. Verified encoded password using website, https://approsto.com/sha-generator/. Was not able to figure out encoding/decoding using curl on the first go so in the interest of time found this tool to verify this scenario.

password: bhavinpatel (sha512) base64 encoded: wGD0wtWFpZ7460gP7vw0tdhawoaowRvzGMKuvPbryfxmpn3j0lBIsQG0ABBES0qVwYFnBQQItz2AZqVrblEO8w

Based on the above, it matches.
