UG - List did not mention about multiple flags

[kengjit]

In the code, there could only be 1 flag type per command, meaning "--type todo --type deadline" to list all Todos and Deadlines is not permitted.

Perhaps this could be implemented in the UG.

Team's Response

1. Incorrect reporting of bug as FeatureFlaw instead of DocumentationBug in the Part II (Evaluating Documents) stage of the PE. Also, the team never cleimed that you can list multiple types at once.

Not that our UG says that there can only be one type that must be selected for the flag.

We also have specified when multiple flags can be accepted where supported so we do not believe that this is a valid issue as we DID NOT specify that multiple flags were accepted for this command.

The 'Original' Bug

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

List - Using multiple flags

Input: list --type deadline --type todo

UG does not specify that multiple filters could be used. Neither was it in our project scope.

:question: Issue duplicate status

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

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Although it was not stated in your UG that multiple filters could be used, it would probably be helpful to include a note or a warning for the users. This instead is a mixture of both a feature flaw and documentation flaw.

Feature flaw: Would have been a reasonably useful feature and could be easily implemented.

Documentation Bug: If the feature is not implemented, but is fairly intuitive for the user to try it, it probably would be best to include a note to let the user know.

Therefore, they are different issues.

Thus, this Is beyond just a cosmetic issue, at best this would be a 'severity.Low'.
