For the new line, I had to add an extra line (making two) before it could display. Who knows why?

I guess it's part of the nuances of this platform. It appears a line with no character keyed in is trimmed off. Therefore even space, tab or enter, can preserve a line, and let it show when you save.
Instead of hardcoding the expected values like you have done, to be on the safe side, you could use a reference to the original data you sent to the server i.e. res.body.article.title.should.equal('Design patterns')
could be rewritten as res.body.article.title.should.equal(newArticle.title)
. This assertion as you have written it would fail if a single space or a character is mistakenly included in the hardcoded strings.
But the code is neatly written and clear
Interesting and novel point to me that you make about the flag issues with ESlint. I have not experienced it before. I will observe going forward, and let you know if I see an issue like that in my code.
The missing line is still not there. Please look at the code again. After your last line of code, airbnb style requires that you give an extra line to the code.
New knowledge I'm getting about chai-http. Thank you. I did not know that.
I see you updated your file name to reflect feedback. Awesome pulse man! Cheers
