Starred list of previous user appears for new user

[Praneet-25]

My previous username was Praneet and I starred some favourite topics for articles which are business and world. However, even when I input a new username (Vijay), I still get them under my starred instead of them being cleared.

Team's Response

I think the product we create as specified by the teaching team should be a single user application. Typing in your name only initialises the system as stated in the UG under Quick Start. We allow for different name inputs as the user may want to be addressed differently everytime he/she opens the application.

we could have further improvements to allow different users to use the application but i believe this is beyond the scope of this module and I feel we should not be penalised for this.

❓ Issue response

Team chose [response.NotInScope]

• I disagree

Reason for disagreement: It is not user friendly in that case as another using might be using the same system and will be able to access the previous data and this would prove to be disadvantageous to him or her.
