Web testing: should we post bugs related to web content?

Let's look at these cases below:
– A website for children but has boring colors
– Wrong grammar in a web page content
– A login link not on the top of all pages but is hidden inside a main menu
– A button does not has tooltip (even in the mockup) but looks very easy to confuse

Sometimes I am requested not to raise them (even by leader). But they look like bug. What is the best move to solve those cases?

    @Thong,

    That’s definitely a bug to me and we should write it up. However, to decide if “something” is a bug or not depends more on definition of bugs. A bug to me is something does not work as requirement or something “bugs” the users.

    In this case, boring color, hard to users (children in this case) is causing many problem to users. Also note that different people will have different definition of bugs and we should also consider that as well.

    Re: “Sometimes I am requested not to raise them (even by leader). But they look like bug. What is the best move to solve those cases?” May I ask why your leader ask you not to raise them? What is the reason?

    @a Thong:
    I’m totally agree that they’re the bug. And it impacted to the way user feel and use product. On my eyes, it looks like the usability bug, depends on Product owner, they might set these bugs are major and need to fix.
