Description:

While we were creating external applications in order to upload them as
offerings into the Store, we realized that you can register identical
applications. That means same name, same URL, same callback URL.

That allows you to create an application that is just a copy from an
existing application that was created by another user and then you can
upload your copy into the Store as if the application is really yours.

You can even register the same application the number of times you want,
leading on an unnecessary redundancy and maybe (depending on that number of
times) a database space problem.

How to replicate
You can test this by two ways:

Way one: Just register a new application as usual in the Account area and
then create another one with exactly the same information. You will see the
second application are going to be created and shown normally.

Way two: Just clone an application created by another user. As a test, you
can create a testing “Jurassic App” application (that we have already
created in the StoreDataTesting account just for testing purposes) with the
following information:

Name: Jurassic App
Description: An app designed for testing purposes that releases some
raptors in your screen.
URL: http://www.elnublo.com/sites/default/files/JurassicApp/index.html
Callback URL: http://www.elnublo.com

A screenshot that shows a three-times-created application is attached to
this ticket.
