Insufficient explanation of STOCK_TICKER #17

Open hermanthong opened 3 years ago

hermanthong commented 3 years ago

There are no details on what a STOCK_TICKER is, or how to obtain it. If the program is targetted as new users, should there be an explanation that the stock ticker is the official short form of a real stock?

Team's Response

stated as "stock's short form"

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: The STOCK_TICKER that your program requires is not simply the stock's short form.

The Stock symbol is unique to each stock, and not an arbitrary short form as your UG implies.

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: As this software is targetted at new investors, the target audience may not understand the requirements of your STOCK_TICKER. Thus, this is a flaw that causes occasional inconvenience to some users.
