Open SeeuSim opened 1 year ago

When an invalid format is entered (missing critical fields), it does not indicate which fields are needed/missing

Team's Response

This is not a bug. We have already provided the format for the add command and the user should be able to check for themselves which fields are missing.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: The burden should not be placed on the user to find the location of their error.

In the case of the Clinic Receptionist target user, who is rushed for time and may make a mistake, this would actually hinder their use of the app as they would have to inspect their command manually to find and correct their mistake.

Should the error point out the issue directly, that would greatly help the user and fulfil the app's target use case of being a efficiency-boosting tool for clinicians.

Hence, this is a flaw in the Error Logging feature that affects a subset of the user group, and warrants a Low severity.
