The instructions for manual testing is insufficient, only have delete command. It would be good to include more commands.

Team's Response

Thank you for reporting. However, we have to choose it as NotInScope because this issue doesn't affect the current usage of the product and is not actually a flaw. The most important section for manual testing is the Launch and Shutdown as these are the two necessary steps for the testing to be carried out. Other than them, other instructions are not necessary. Specifically, we have explained very clearly how each feature works in previous sections of DG. "Deleting a person" is provided just as an example to inspire the users on how to test the product. Including too many details for testing would make the DG unnecessarily long, which hinders the user's reading experience. The reality is, some people might prefer concise and simple DG just instructing about the implementation of the system and significant features, while others might prefer very detailed explanations for every aspect of the product, such as the testing steps. It is very hard to satisfy all reader's tastes. We might want to consider adding more testing examples in future iterations, but providing the work we have already done, the proposed issue is not in the scope. image.png

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

Reason for disagreement: I do not see the reason why shutdown is more important than the other features as the functionalities to keep track of records are obviously the focus of the product. Additionally, the previous sections of the DG mainly focus on the appointment management and left out the patient and contact management. Therefore, the current manual testing guide is not sufficiently useful for the readers.
