Severity Error

Bad Practice

    using (var context = new ClientContext("http://yoursite"))
    {
        Web web = context.Web;

        BasePermissions permissions = new BasePermissions();
        permissions.Set(PermissionKind.ManageWeb);

        ConditionalScope scope = new ConditionalScope(context, () => web.DoesUserHavePermissions(permissions).Value);

        using (scope.StartScope())
        {
            // You are not allowed to set properties in the ConditionalScope.

            // Example: This isn't allowed:
            web.Title = "New Title";
            web.Update();
        }
        context.ExecuteQuery();

        if (scope.TestResult.Value)
        {
            // TODO: Add your logic here instead.
        }
    }

Good Practice
    using (var context = new ClientContext("http://yoursite"))
    {
         Web web = context.Web;
        List list = web.Lists.GetByTitle("MyCustomerList");

        BasePermissions permissions = new BasePermissions();
        permissions.Set(PermissionKind.AddListItems);

        ConditionalScope scope = new ConditionalScope(context, () => web.DoesUserHavePermissions(permissions).Value);

        using (scope.StartScope())
        {
            // Start the scope.
        }
        context.ExecuteQuery();

        if (scope.TestResult.Value)
        {
            // Good Practice: After the scope has executed, verify that scope.TestResult.Value == true and perform any logic you need here.
            web.Title = "New Title";
            web.Update();
            context.ExecuteQuery();
        }
    }
