    Appendix F: Brief guidelines for conducting usability testing

    Before starting:

    • Introduce your prototype to the tester

    • Acknowledge that the prototype may have usability problems

    • Ask for permission to record the usability test

    [Examples of software for recording everything on the computer screen and save it as video les

    (1) www.bandicam.com (2) http://screencast-o-matic.com/]

    During testing:
    • Hand out test task one at a time to the tester
    • Remember to ask the tester to “think aloud”
    • Observe the tester interacting with your prototype. Let the tester perform his/her tasks
    independently.
    • Observe the tester all the time during testing and record problems faced by the tester (E.g. long
    paused, excessive eyes movement, thinking, sighing, annoying, etc)

    After testing:

    • Thanks the testers for his/her time

    • Asking the testers for their opinions about your prototype.
