Wrong functionality for command

[Thunderdragon221]

In the "help" command, listing of items is indicated as option "2", but in practice, is command "3". Severity is medium and is a functionality bug since it negatively affects the user's experience, since the "help" functionality and list items functionality do not match.

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

Wrong command for functionality

In the "help" command, deleting an item is listed as command "3", whereas listing items is listed as command "2". However, during testing, command "2" deleted an item instead (wrong matching of functionality to command). This causes confusion to the user and negatively impacts their experience using the application since no prior warnings were given that "2" was for deletion of items, and after the user keys in a valid index to delete, its too late. Thus, severity of bug is at least medium.

❓ Issue severity

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

• I disagree

Reason for disagreement: Here are the severity definitions as listed on the CS2113 website:

From the above definitions, it is evident that this bug should be of Medium severity since these commands are used extremely often (being main features of the program) and would thus significantly and adversely impact user experience of the product. This issue is further exacerbated by the fact that no prior warnings that the feature accessed via the command indicated in the help command for deleteitem are given to the user, and when the user realizes this after keying in a valid item index, it is already too late as stated previously since the item would have already been deleted from tracking. Since users can continue to use the product but would experience significant inconvenience due this bug (accessing the wrong functionality with a given command listed in the help command), this is clearly a Functionality Bug which deserves at least Medium severity.
