Missing step under UG start up. #14

Open Halpfrog opened 2 years ago

Halpfrog commented 2 years ago

Description of start up process for Mac and windows is given but not one for Linux or Unix despite it being one of the Mainstream OS in the DG,

This is an issue as a linux user may not be able to open the application using the double click method but they are specifically not given consideration to while the other 2 are.

Team's Response

First screenshot is from UG: meant for users of the application to learn how to start the application.

Second screenshot is from DG: we only specified mainstream OS in DG. We did this to recognise that developers use linux and unix as well.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: image.png

According to the module website, the requirements are that the software be able to test on a linux machine. The problem as of now is that no consideration was given to them while the other OSes were given extra consideration. Perhaps you could have included a seperate step for linux machines or added a simple exception if only one required a different start up process. Nevertheless, there is inconsistency in the way the UG is written as you have treated different OS differently for no appreciable reason.

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: A verylow is meant for mostly cosmetic issues that do not affect the readability. However, in this case, there is incosistency between what is a minimum requirement of the software and what the UG seems to suggest it actually does.
