Duplicate phone number checking

[AlexanderTanJunAn]

Since the program is intended for efficient crowd management, I believe a duplicate phone number checker is implemented as it does not make sense for two different ID's to have the same number

Team's Response

There are possible scenarios where 2 people might register the same phone number. For an example, a child might use the parent's phone number when checking in. Therefore a duplicate phone number checker is not required.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: The reason that the team has provided does not seem reasonable enough to not have a duplicate phone number checker. If a child is too young to have a phone number, the child is too young to be checking in anywhere, especially without adult supervision. This is a very specific counter-example. What if the child provides the wrong parent number? And that number belongs to another ID? That will cause administrative issues as the child is now "lost".

:question: Issue severity

Team chose [severity.VeryLow] Originally [severity.Medium]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Due to the potential fallout of the issue, I do not think the severity should be very low, it is a low at best.
