When adding long names, it becomes cut off.

[rgonslayer]

When adding a name that is too long, it is cut off and users are unable to see the full name.

The name could have been wrapped or the length limited to ensure such behaviour does not occur.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

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

Justification for downgrading from severity.Low to severity.VeryLow:

Given that the above input value is unusually long, and that it is pretty rare that an administrative staff will key in the entire scholarship name instead of abbreviation of such names. Additionally, our application is able to display the entire scholarships for all scholarship names on a standard 1920x1080 screen for NUS related scholarships since our application is targetted at NUS administrative staff.

Hence, we considered it as an issue with severity of VeryLow, that affects the visibility of such inputs.

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)

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: The issue this is marked as a duplicate of refers to scholarships, where the team defended by saying that NUS staff are likely to use abbreviations. However, the issue raised by myself is regarding names.

The longest name is 747 characters long. While extreme, it should be considered.
