Usability Testing

Heute morgen bin ich über diesen kurzen aber ganz brauchbaren Beitrag zum Thema Usability gestolpert: Three Tips to Keep Usability Testing on Track.

Usability testing is generally scenario or task-based. Your company writes out a bunch of scenarios and the testing company sees if users can complete the tasks. For example, "A man needs to find a graphics card that will work with his computer and his monitor." This is the task, and the usability tests will report on where in the path the user got stuck, what he had wanted to do, and whether he was successful. That's what the company you hire will report on, because that's what you asked.

Der Text enthält wirklich ein paar gute Tipps.
