As a user when I enter tab1 instead of tab 1, I expect an error message that shows invalid command format and displays the correct command format. I feel this error message is inappropriate

Team's Response

The product is not missing a critical functionality that makes the application less useful for users. The team decided to follow standard command line conventions as shown below

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

Reason for disagreement: I would expect the application to parse the first few characters of the command to get an indication of which command the user is trying to execute and then throw an error message accordingly. While I agree that the team's application works correctly, it is not optimized to recognise which command a user is trying to type and throw an invalid command format error for that specific command instead of a generic unknown command.

When the user enters tab1 instead of tab 1, he/she would expect the app to throw an invalid command format error message for the tab command along with the correct format to use rather than an unknown command message. This is not a functionality flaw but rather a feature flaw.

Therefore, this can be classified as a bug with low severity.
