Cannot close the program when there is a duplicate folder #6

Open ShyamKrishna33 opened 2 months ago

ShyamKrishna33 commented 2 months ago

When the user creates a folder named player2113.txt in the directory data before starting the program, the user can never be able to end the program.

So, even when the program is forcefully closed and started again the situation continues. Basically the program cannot even be used in this kind of situation.

Team's Response

Thanks for pointing this out. The exception handling incorrectly blocks the exiting function.

However, we believe that the severity should be lower due to the rarity of the user creating/possessing a folder with the name player2113.txt. The critical functionality of the product also continues to work since users are still able to close the application through other means.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: I agree that this situation is rare, but the program basically is not usable after the process as the progress of the user cannot be stored and more importantly the program cannot be ended by the bye command as listed in the User Guide. Considering how unusable the product becomes in this situation, I think it is a bug of type severity.medium.
