QA » openQA Project

We have several places where information on our API is stored.

• WebAPI.pm includes the route definitions for Mojolicious.
• In the actual methods, we have the validation object to define parameter validation.
• In our documentation we have some API examples

Changing or adding things to the API often results in forgetting docs and/or validation.

Having the definitions all in one place avoids that, and can serve as documentation as well, or at least we can generate documentation from it.

Having the definitions in a data format allows to easily port to other data formats in the future, e.g. openAPI (also known as Swagger).
