I will like to propose that the severity label (medium) given to this issue is too high.
Instead I propose it is switch to low instead. First I agree that the value proposition can be farther explained.
However, the main value of our application is already encapsulated in this statement here. Our target is canteen vendors. And the main problem our target audience faced is managing their suppliers. This can be seen in our target profile.
Thus, our value proposition clearly target what is important to these users.
Other features such as tasks as you have stated are nice to have features for these canteen vendors. While they can be added as you suggested, I feel that the main value in our application is explained. Thus, I propose to switch the severity label to low since it is in line with our target audience which is important.
Items for the Tester to Verify
:question: Issue severity
Team chose [severity.Low]
Originally [severity.Medium]
- [x] I disagree
Reason for disagreement: The point of the value proposition is not for encapsulation or summary, but to be specific about how the app helps the target user as your team has identified. From the perspective of a new developer onboarding to the project, the current value proposition is highly simplified, and will not help me understand how exactly the app aims to help the target users, or what features it offers to do so. Hence I think it will cause occasional inconvenience to readers like a new developer, and deserves a medium severity.
The current proposition is not specific at all, which is suppose to be the intention of this section, as seen in the textbook.
In my opinion, the value proposition here is lacking. Salesy is an app that can manage suppliers, keep track of their supplies and even add tasks. It is much more feature rich that what this value proposition claims.
Just putting "Manage suppliers faster" is selling the app short of what it can do, and more elaboration would help readers understand what features Salesy is trying to accomplish.
