Possible for two contacts to share the same phone number

[tanweien]

Two unique contacts can have the same phone number. Phone numbers should be unique to the person.

Steps to recreate: Create two contacts and assign both contacts the same phone number.

Team's Response

Two contacts can share the same departmental phone number so they are not necessarily unique to a contact.

Items for the Tester to Verify

Team chose [response.Rejected]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Agree that two contacts can share the same departmental phone number, but cannot have the same mobile number. UG also does not mention the possibility of having a departmental phone number or a duplicate number. The constraints to phone numbers are also not mentioned in the UG, but are instead mentioned in the DG which is a bug as users will be unable to determine what valid inputs are without running into an error message.

I believe that implementing a validity check would help reduce bugs introduced by the user.
