The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

No proper error message is given for update command

When simply using update, the result message given is null, which is not ideal. It could be better if a help message is displayed to inform the user about the syntax of the update command.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. input update

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

This bug is a UI bug, which is purely aesthetic (null is the error message). Therefore, the bug is downgraded to a "very low" severity.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue duplicate status

Team chose to mark this issue as a duplicate of another issue (as explained in the Team's response above)

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]


:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: This severity could be low, medium but not very low. The reason being that having a generic error message can be very misleading to users as they are unsure of what went wrong and this decreases usability.
