Summary:
NSHTTPURLResponse.localizedStringForStatusCode is returning descriptions of HTTP status code as specified in RFC2616 -- the HTTP/1.1 standard. That RFC, however, has been updated in 2012 to include several new status code in RFC6585. These codes are not being returned by the NSHTTPURLResponse API.

import Foundation
NSHTTPURLResponse.localizedStringForStatusCode(429)


Expected Results:
The return value should be a text description that matches RFC6585, following the sample code, the result value should be

"too many requests"

The value is a generic description of the error code. Following the sample code, it is

"client error"
