Usability Test Planning

Test Objectives

⬥ Test if users are able to accomplish the given tasks

⬥ Understand how long it takes for users to complete each task

⬥ Identify the features that generate difficulties and confusion when users are navigating through the website and completing a task

⬥ Generate findings from testing results to shed lights on iterations for the next round

Test Subject

Mid-Fidelity, Mobile Prototype of Steam

Methodology

Evaluative Research Methodology:

  1. Think-Aloud Method: I will encourage each participant to adopt the think-aloud method, where  they will talk about their thought process as they complete the task.

  2. Usability Testing:

⬥ Moderated, in-person testing: I will open the prototype on my computer and invite the  participant to complete tasks. In the meantime, I will be sitting aside, observing and taking  notes of the process.

⬥ Moderated, remote testing: A link to the prototype will be provided to the participants. I will  set up zoom meetings with each of them, invite them to share their screen, and observe the task completion process.

Participants

3-5 Participants who: 1) age between the target group of 18-55, and 2) are gamers.

Recruiting Plan

Participants will be recruited from my personal network and discord community.
