Information on the task does not get removed even when task is deleted #7

Open tankangliang opened 3 years ago

Summary:

After showing information about a task on the top right, the task is deleted and the information about the task still remains there even when the task is no longer valid.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Click on any task in the schedule to set the information on the top right, I clicked the first one in this screen shot.

  1. Delete the task as such delete task 1

Expected results:

The information should no longer be shown since there is no such task anymore.

Actual results:

Task no longer appears on the schedule or the list but its information is still shown. This could be confusing to users and think that their task was not deleted.

Team's Response

Thanks for spotting! We changed the severity to low because the purpose of deletion is such that it is no longer in the storage. The display acts as a cache and does not affect the user experience and storage correctness.

Items for the Tester to Verify

:question: Issue severity

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

Reason for disagreement: I think that the expected functionality in such a situation should be to no longer show the information of the task in the information panel. It is very likely that users will click the task in their schedule to view the description of their task before deciding if the task should be deleted or not. In such cases, the command to delete the task is issued yet the visual feedback received from the application is unintuitive to the user since the task information is retained, yet the message says the task has been deleted. The issue does not affect storage correctness and the app is still usable but this is a common use case and is likely to cause inconvenience to many users.
