Regional bug

Title of the post is inspired from a fellow tester Mohit’s blog. Thanks Mohit for inspiring !....

This post is an extension of my previous post Bugs found in routine internet surfing – 1 where I mentioned bug found on a local newspapers website. Now this Dainik Bhaskar’s (A Hindi Newspaper) websites irritates me a lot as recently I found another high priority defect related to the navigation on the website. Before reading further I request you to refer my previous post for more details on the previous defect. Now here is the latest bug –

NOTE - Before going further more , please note that it’s a Hindi newspaper.

Bug > High priority and medium severity (As per my perception)

Short description – News Paper Website missing with the value of one city in the drop down on the respective states home page

Steps –
1. Open the URL www.bhaskar.com and click on States TAB on the home page
2. Click on Madhya Pradesh and click further on the Madhya Pradesh link (This steps will take you to URL http://www.bhaskar.com/mp/ , you can directly hit this URL also)
3. Navigate down to the drop down with value “select city”. Yellow highlighted portion in the screen shot below-




Actual Result – There is no value saying “Gwalior” , however when the user types in http://www.bhaskar.com/mp/gwalior/ in the address bar s /he is redirected to the respective page.

there are lot of other GUI defects as well

Thanks & Regards,
Amit
