Advertlets Review: Round 2..Still Considered Broken
Josh Lim and Zaki of Advertlets took the time to comment on my review post on Advertlets but I still stand by my observation that the login functionality of http://advertlets.com is a broken one.
You can try out my previous scenario mentioned in my review post here, but now this is a brand new scenario, which I've mentioned in the comments section but am putting it up in a new post. Not too difficult to execute but definitely a curve ball for Advertlets' development and testing teams:
You can try out my previous scenario mentioned in my review post here, but now this is a brand new scenario, which I've mentioned in the comments section but am putting it up in a new post. Not too difficult to execute but definitely a curve ball for Advertlets' development and testing teams:
- User A logins successfully to Advertlets via http://advertlets.com
- User A closes his browser, in this case it's Firefox. Doesn't matter if you close all Firefox windows, just as long as you close the one showing Advertlets on it.
- User B goes to User A's computer, fires up Firefox and goes to http://advertlets.com, and keys in tom dick and harry user information e.g. wrong username and password.
Now.. guess what happens? Despite the wrong login info, User B will now be logged-in as User A in Advertlets.
I'm going to say the same thing as I've mentioned in the comments section of my earlier post. If Google Adsense was to display such tendencies... I would flip.
Do note that I don't have two Advertlets accounts, so I don't have the opportunity to test the scenario whereby User B enters valid User B information and logs in.
