173917 - Empty request does not produce an error message.

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Bugzilla :: Attachments & Requests, defect)

Description

[Aleksey Nogin]

To reporoduce, try filing a request with all boxes empty.

Expected: either:
1) A request gets created and assigned to a "default" reviewer for the
product/component in question.
2) An error message is given, telling to enter a non-null requestee list.

Actual: A message is given telling that request was succesfully generated, while
in fact no requests were generated.

P.S. IMHO the choice between (1) and (2) should be configurable - if a default
reviwer is specified, it should be used and if not, an error message should be
given. But anything would be better than the current confusing behavior.

This looks like a problem with the current RT implementation on b.m.o.  Is this
still an issue with the version checked into CVS?

Resolving, as no reply from reporter. If this is a problem with the current
implementation (and it's pretty unlikely, as it's different code) then we'll
find out soon enough.

I can not reply to the question "Is this still an issue with the version checked
into CVS?" since I do not have any up-to-date installation I can test on. I
will, however, test it again once b.m.o is upgraded.
