Unable to test Display command #5

Open iamchenjiajun opened 3 years ago

iamchenjiajun commented 3 years ago

Description: Since this program was designed specifically for AY2021S2, I was unable to test the display command which displays the command on the current date. Even thought this was stated in the User Guide, this makes the feature hard to test, which is a condition for a feature flaw according to the module website.

Input: display

Output:

<-------------------------------------------------------------->
Today's date is not within the set Semester Date.
Valid Date: 2021 Jan 1 - 2021 May 31
Please proceed to using other type of Display Commands
<-------------------------------------------------------------->

Team's Response

We have stated that this application works for AY2020/2021 semester 2 only. Showing the schedule today using 'display' is testable if the date today is within the range, and from our developer side, this is easy to test by setting the date today to a day in AY2020/2021 semester 2.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: It is not reasonable to expect the tester to change the date during the practical exam under exam conditions, given that changing the date could possibly mess up the functionality of other programs which are used in the proctoring such as Zoom and CATcher timestamps. Furthermore, instructions were not given to change the date in the user guide. This makes the feature untestable.

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: severity.Low is reserved for bugs that do not affect normal operations of the product, but in this case, I was unable to test the funtionality which would warrant a severity.Medium.
