Introduction

As a developer, encountering unexpected behavior in an application can be frustrating and time-consuming to resolve. In this article, we will explore a specific issue in the Product Detail view of a mobile application, where an unnecessary 'Save' prompt appears after returning from the Product Settings. We will delve into the steps to reproduce the issue, analyze the expected behavior, and provide a solution to resolve this problem.

Reproducing the Issue

To reproduce the issue, follow these steps:

Navigate to Product Detail View: Open the Product Detail view, where you can view and edit product information.
Upload Images: Upload some images to the product. This will initiate the image upload process.
Press 'Save' while Images are Uploading: While the images are still uploading, press the 'Save' button. This will save the product information, but the images will still be uploading in the background.
Open Product Settings: Open the Product Settings by tapping on the settings icon or navigating to the settings menu.
Press 'Done' without Making Changes: Without making any changes to the product settings, press the 'Done' button to close the settings menu.
Return to Product Detail View: Return to the Product Detail view by pressing the back button or navigating to the product detail screen.
Observe the 'Save' Button: Observe that the 'Save' button is still visible, even though there are no new edits to save.

Expected Behavior

The expected behavior is that the 'Save' button should not be visible after returning from the Product Settings, as there are no new edits to save. The application should recognize that no changes were made to the product settings and should not prompt the user to save any changes.

Analyzing the Issue

To analyze the issue, we need to understand the application's behavior when the user presses the 'Save' button while images are still uploading. The application should save the product information and continue uploading the images in the background. However, when the user opens the Product Settings and presses the 'Done' button without making any changes, the application should recognize that no changes were made and should not prompt the user to save any changes.

Solution

To resolve this issue, we need to modify the application's behavior when the user presses the 'Save' button while images are still uploading. We can achieve this by adding a check to see if any changes were made to the product settings before prompting the user to save any changes.

Here is an example of how we can modify the application's code to resolve this issue:

// Before pressing 'Save' button
if (imagesAreUploading && !hasChangesBeenMade) {
    // Do not prompt user to save any changes
    return;
}

// After pressing 'Save' button
if (imagesAreUploading && !hasChangesBeenMade) {
    // Save product information and continue uploading images
    saveProductInformation();
    continueUploadingImages();
} else {
    // Prompt user to save any changes
    promptUserToSaveChanges();
}

Conclusion

In conclusion, the unnecessary 'Save' prompt after returning from Product Settings in the Product Detail View is a common issue that can be resolved by modifying the application's behavior when the user presses the 'Save' button while images are still uploading. By adding a check to see if any changes were made to the product settings, we can ensure that the application behaves as expected and does not prompt the user to save any changes unnecessarily.
