QID 580507: Decimal Field Maximum Limit Matches Schema
In this scenario maximum value for decimal fields are tested. Values more than the maximum defined in the swagger file for decimal fields are sent to the server for the endpoint being tested. The expectation is that APIs will reject the request as invalid, if the value is more than it's maximum. Based on testing done using requests with values more than the maximum it is determined that the maximum limits defined in the swagger file are enforced successfully.
Enforcing the maximum value defined on the decimal field swagger file will help provide clarity to the API users and avoid abuse of the API by hackers.Enforcing limits help in mitigating resource exhaustion attacks.
