What an assessment for ICTPRG553 must cover

34 assessable components: 5 elements (19 performance criteria), 5 performance evidence and 5 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 5 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

1 Create new project

  • 1.1Establish need and application of REST APIs according to business needs
  • 1.2Review, evaluate and select REST API framework according to required programming language and business needs
  • 1.3Review, evaluate and select required integrated development environment (IDE)
  • 1.4Create project using IDE according to business needs
  • 1.5Configure and implement RESTful API in project

2 Build REST API endpoints

  • 2.1Build REST API end point using GET method and return a collection of records
  • 2.2Build REST API endpoint and return a single record
  • 2.3Configure REST API endpoint using POST and PUT method according to function
  • 2.4Build REST API endpoint using DELETE method
  • 2.5Test methods and confirm response status code reflects function of REST API according to business needs

3 Enable cross origin resource sharing (CORS)

  • 3.1Update REST API GET, POST, PUT and DELETE endpoints and confirm that simple cross-origin requests are allowed
  • 3.2Review and select REST API client and test simple CORS requests
  • 3.3Update REST API GET, POST, PUT and DELETE endpoints and allow pre-flight cross-origin requests using OPTION method
  • 3.4Test CORS for pre-flight request

4 Secure REST API

  • 4.1Review, evaluate and select method for securing REST API according to business needs
  • 4.2Implement authentication and authorisation for securing REST API endpoints

5 Finalise REST API

  • 5.1Review and evaluate industry tools and conventions for documenting REST API endpoints according to business needs
  • 5.2Develop documentation for REST API endpoints
  • 5.3Validate documentation against REST API endpoints and submit to required personnel

Performance evidence

  • build and test at least one representational state transfer (REST or RESTful) application program interface (API) endpoint and confirm functionality.
  • enable cross origin resource sharing (CORS)
  • use GET, POST, PUT, DELETE and PATCH methods
  • secure REST API with authentication and authorisation
  • document REST API work.

Knowledge evidence

  • features and different applications that applies to the HTTP network protocol
  • features and anatomy of REST API HTTP request and response, including HTTP headers and body
  • language used in programming language
  • HTTP GET, POST, PUT and OPTIONS methods and features of each
  • CORS methodology.

Foundation skills

  • Reading: Critically analyses documentation, instructions and data from a variety of sources and records, and consolidates information, in order to determine requirements and steps forwards Identifies and interprets technical material to determine and confirm job, business and systems requirements
  • Writing: Demonstrates sophisticated writing skills using specialised language, technical language and scripts and required conventions to document work
  • Problem solving: Applies systematic and analytical decision- making processes for complex situations and bug code Uses nuanced understanding of context to recognise anomalies and subtle deviations to normal expectations, focusing attention and remedying problems as they arise
  • Self-management: Takes full responsibility for following policies, procedures and legislative requirements, and identifies organisational implications of new legislation or regulation, including privacy and data use legislation Monitors progress of plans and schedules, and reviews and changes them, to meet new demands and priorities Investigates new and innovative ideas, as a means by which to continuously improve, work practices and processes through consultation, formal and analytical thinking
  • Technology: Uses complex scripts and tools required within complex systems, applications, operation systems, the internet and required software and hardware components Uses cyber security procedures and techniques to maintain data security, and systems and application integrity

Questions about assessing ICTPRG553

What does an assessment tool for ICTPRG553 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for ICTPRG553 needs to address all 34 unit components: 5 elements with 19 performance criteria, 5 performance evidence requirements, 5 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for ICTPRG553?

Auditori pulls the current release of ICTPRG553 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for ICTPRG553 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing ICTPRG553 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of ICTPRG553, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
