TravelMate v.5.5.0 says reset code has been sent to my unregistered email

Reported and Acknowledged

Expected behavior

I was expecting it to toast an error message that an email isn't registered while trying to get a reset code via email.

Actual behavior

It says, A new code has been sent when the user clicks on Didn't get the code? resend

How to reproduce

  • Launch TravelMate v 5.5.0
  • click on forget password?. Then, enter
    an unregistered email, then click the submit button
  • Click on a button down the screen that says, Didn't get the code? resend
  • you'll see a message that says; A new code has been sent.

Hi @rufans, thanks for making this report.

I was able to reproduce the behavior you described. There are apps that are structured this way, sometimes the email is not needed. One way to do it is to have the user provide just the username associated with the account before clicking the reset link. Then the app automatically sends the link to the email address with which the user registered.

But then in a case where the user has to provide an email, best practice demands that the developer validate and confirm that the email exists before sending the reset link. Good find.

The description of the actual behavior is well written, the same as the expected behavior. Also, the steps looked easy enough to follow. Your title, on the other hand, should be better worded in future reports.

I look forward to more of your reports.
