[UG] Does not explain the check function in add command well #9

Open hiongkaihan opened 3 years ago

The UG did not mention that it is a requirement to enter https:// before a url to ensure that the url passes the check function.

For example, even though 'www.youtube.com' is a valid url, it fails the checker. However 'https://www.youtube.com' was accepted.

The UG should have added a disclaimer that says that https:// needs to be included for the url to pass the check function.

Team's Response

www.youtube.com is invalid since it does not have "https" and not formatted correctly. TraceYourProj will not help with adding keywords and formatting the provided URL like modern browsers. It could be a feature flaw but not a documentation bug.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: I do not believe that this bug should be rejected. There was no proper error message in the application as to why the url "www.youtube.com" was rejected, but instead it just said “resource failed to be added.” How would the user know that “www.youtube.com" will not be accepted without the “https:” if the UG and application did not mention it. Not mentioning this in the UG can cause the user to be confused as to why the function is not working, making them unable to add projects using the check function, rendering the application useless. Furthermore, the application does not say anything or give a relevant error message with regards to this problem, hence I believe it should at least be stated in the UG.
