Unit 5 Reading Response

Chapter 9 “Usability testing on 10 cents a day

In Chapter 9 the main focus is about user testing. There are many phases in the testing process but making sure that it is done, is that it’s the most important thing to be done. The first thing of all is to make sure not to let the user testing get away from you. The testing should be done at least once a month and not when major mile stones are about to be hit. If the testing process gets too far down the deadline then that’s just asking for disaster in the project. Now that the testing process is about to begin, make sure to find user that you believe will be using the site. These are your target audiences and will be the best options for the testing process and get you the best results. Once the user start the testing process starts the team watch the user and observe them. Have somebody guild the user/tester through the testing process and make notes of what the user says and encounters in the testing. Once the testing is over and the tester have been compensated for their time and effort, get together as a team and talk about what the users/tester have encountered in the testing. After all is done, make all necessary changes to the web site that the multiples tester encountered in the testing process. As a group see what changes will work without losing the feel and what you’re going for in the site. Then re tests the changes that have been made to the site in a months’ time down the road.
