Tag error message not correct (in app) #5

Although mentioned in the UG, the app does not state that tags cannot contain spaces. The error message should be updated.

Command used: "add n|guy e|em@il p|1234 a|12345 t|he llo"

Team's Response

Thank you for your report. We agree that the app's error message is inconsistent with the UG.

However, this is not an issue as spaces are not alphanumeric. This error message encompass all requirements for tags.

Reason for disagreement: I feel like NotInScope would be more appropriate here. Without getting into the definition, my initial impression of "alphanumeric" is that the tag allows alphabets, numbers, and spaces. This is definitely subjective and I'm not sure about how others interpret "alphanumeric", but personally, my group added this specification that space is not allowed in our UG as well, for our alphanumeric tags.

So while the error message is technically "sufficient" and not necessary at this stage, adding that "space is not allowed" in the app's error message is a simple change that can be easily done and will definitely add clarity.
