Lesson 2 · Young Builder / Capstone
Making it better.
You have a list of problems and limited time. Some will not get fixed, and that's a decision you should make deliberately rather than by running out of time.
Sort every problem by one question: how much does this hurt the user?
That last category is real. Some things bother only the person who built it.
When you fix, fix properly. You learned this in Chapter 6 with the score showing -1.
If three testers typed the date wrongly, the symptom fix is accepting more formats. The cause fix is telling them the format in the prompt: Due date (DD/MM): .
One stops three people being confused. The other patches the consequence of confusing them.
Ask why they made the mistake, not just how to accept it.
