Inaccurate error message when creating project #2

Open kerct opened 4 years ago

When the number entered is negative, the error message is given as "Missing parameters." rather than something like "Please enter a positive number", as highlighted in yellow in the screenshot below.

Team's Response

The dash is a special character used in the parser and thus should not be used as parameters. It could have been better stated in the user guide on our part.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue type

Team chose [type.DocumentationBug] Originally [type.FeatureFlaw]

Reason for disagreement: It is not purely a documentation issue since the error message needs to be fixed too. In this example, “missing parameters” is not an appropriate message. Perhaps it should be changed to something like “only positive numbers allowed”.

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]
