No data file on first launch of the app #6

There is no data file when the app is launched for the first time. This could inconvenience experienced users who want to immediately start editing the data file manually.

Team's Response

Hi tester! Thanks for pointing this out :).

Note that when the app is launched for the first time the data generated is sample data. Since this is the case, we disagree with the premise of the bug report. It does not seem likely that an experienced user would want to manually edit sample data, since the sample data would be of very little use to a real clinic.

If anything they would want to edit their own clinic's data. But if this were the case, it would mean they have used ClinicMate before for their clinic, which means that there would already be saved data from previous use.

In the case of a new user, it might be useful to view the format of the save file. Either out of curiosity or to make a parser. However, since we mention that your data is only saved to hard disk after commands that change it

and after doing that it is possible to view the sample data, we decided that this issue is NotInScope.
