Incorrect notation for associations #10

Open LargeCrowd opened 4 months ago

Notations like <<create>> are not standard notations. Instead, creates > should be used.

Team's Response

Hi! Thank you for pointing this out! This limitation was due to PlantUML's limited and fixed formatting for line captions, which results in them appearing horizontal. This meant that it would not be very clear which class it is pointing to, and hence the use of both arrows!

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: Actually, using the notation creates > will give an arrow pointing in the direction of the created object in the association, rather than simply pointing horizontally rightwards. Moreover, I believe using the '-s' form of the words follows standard notation more closely as well. (i.e. creates vs create)

Example from my team's DG:
