This bug affects task tracking reliability and may confuse users about task completion status.

[Advaitgaur004]

Description

The update_status method in the TodoList class creates an inconsistency between the status field and the is_completed flag of the Task class when a task is marked as completed

Files

• todo_list.py

To Reproduce

1. Initialize the TodoList class.
2. Add a task using the add_task method.
3. Update the status of the task to "completed" using the update_status method.
4. Call the list_tasks method to see the task details.

Expected Behavior

When a task's status is updated to "completed," the is_completed flag should also be set to True, reflecting the task's completion status.

Actual Behavior

The is_completed flag remains False even when the task status is updated to "completed," leading to inconsistency in task completion status.

Tasks

List specific tasks that need to be completed in the order they should be done. Include links to specific lines of code where applicable.

• Update the update_status method to set task.is_completed = (new_status == "completed") when the status is updated.

Possible Fixes

Modify the update_status method to ensure that the is_completed flag is updated alongside the status field
