Google structured data testing tool

Open qraynaud opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

Google provide an testing tool to check meta tags of a website (https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool). It is mainly used by devs to check that Google+ will display tags correctly.

The issue here is that Google+ bot sends the following useragent: Google (+https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/) that is properly handled by uap-core regexpes and exports a browser family of GooglePlusBot.

The data testing tool sends a different useragent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Google-Structured-Data-Testing-Tool +https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool) that is reported as Other because it does not really match anything.

Should it be also reported as GooglePlusBot since it is related? I think so but I'd rather ask your point of view on this since I don't know all the implications of this.
