Google structured data testing tool
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.
