Team's Response

To our understanding, the user will only add one exam per module, hence it is unlikely that the user adds the same exam multiple times. We have a delete function so that the user can delete the duplicate exams. Also, multiple exams can be held on the same date and time (although a student should not be taking 2 modules with concurrent exams and that's when he has to raise his concern to the professor.)

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue type

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

Reason for disagreement: [replace this with your explanation]


:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: Indeed, it is unlikely that the user adds the same exam multiple times. However, it can still happen if: 1) The user forgot that the exam was already included and added the same exam again. 2) The user made an error and keyed in the wrong date and time for another exam. 3) There is a clash between modules and the user does indeed have two exams taking place at the same time.

It is fundamentally impossible to have two exams starting at the same time, which means that whatever the reason was, the application should reject the entry or at least give an warning to the user to remind them of the clash in timing. In any case, being able to add multiple exams at the same date and time affects the usability of the product.

Medium severity was chosen as it is a flaw that causes occasional inconvenience to some users who did the points listed above but they can continue to use the product.
