Introduction
This study of Loveandrobots.com was conducted to test the sites usability and enhance its
user interface. The interface was tested by two select users. These users were given tasks to
carry out and were observed by the tester. The tasks given were similar those an average
visitor to Loveandrobots.com would wish to carry out. For each of these tasks qualitative or
quantitative data were measured.
This report contains observations and recommendations interpreted from the user’s
feedback, both physical and verbal. These observations and recommendations are broken
down and laid out according to each of the tasks given to the users. Participants were also
asked for any suggestions they had which would create a smoother experience of the site.

Aim and Uses of the Website
https://www.loveandrobots.com/
Love and Robots is a design platform where you can tweak, personalise and re-design fashion
accessories through a method of 3D printing. It provides a range of different accessories for
both men and women.
The aim of this website is to offer a unique way of customising your own accessories at the
user’s ease. Accessories include earrings and necklaces for women, and for men it includes
cufflinks and bowties.
The use of the website is to register and login, to create and customise accessories, to add
these to your cart and purchase them. They have also opened a pop-up shop which you can
visit and customise accessories in person, on-the-spot and they will be custom-made for you
within the hour. You can also contact this website through e-mail and phone. The website is
also advertised on a multitude of social media such as Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and
Pinterest.

Participants
Two participants took part in the study. Both participants have previous internet experience.
They were separately tested in an IADT computer lab. This environment was one they are
comfortable in as they usually attend classes and study in it.
They were asked to complete some tasks and answer some questions about the website and
their impressions. They each gave informed consent to have their actions recorded using a
screen capturing software. The sessions were observed and notes were taken by the tester
as the user completed tasks, encouraged to think out loud.
Method
1. Participants were first given a consent form to sign and welcomed to the usability test.
The tester gave the user an introduction and then the testing began.
2. They were asked a few basic questions before beginning to gain some insight about
their level of computer and internet skills.
3. In signing the consent for the users agreed to their actions being recorded using screen
capture software and microphone. They were encouraged to think out loud while
completing the given tasks.
4. Each participant was shown the homepage for five seconds then asked to give their
first impression of the site and its contents.
5. Four scenarios were read aloud to the user for them to complete. They were also given
a typed task sheet to which they could refer. Each scenario was revealed after the
preceding one was completed.
6. After the tasks had been completed, the users were asked exit questions to gain their
overall impression of the site and any issues they encountered.
7. The ease of completion, path taken by the user, time taken to complete the task,
number of hints needed by the user to complete the task as well as any errors the user
makes while executing the task and how well they can recover from these were all
recorded.

The four scenarios:
Before beginning, the users were asked some basic questions of their experience with the
internet.
Task 1: First impressions
Look at the site homepage of LoveandRobots.com for 5 seconds.
Have you seen this site before?
Just from looking briefly at this site, what do you think this website is about? Please be
specific.
Scenario 1: Create an account and login
You are looking to buy a present for a friend who is moving away. You have heard about this
website, and think it would make a nice present for that friend. Firstly, you want to sign up.
We will provide the details such as email and password.
Scenario 2: Customise map cufflinks
For your friend, you have heard about a certain product on this site. Find the map cufflinks
and customise them to show his hometown (Dublin) and where he is going (Boston). Engrave
the back of the cufflinks with his name (Conor).
Scenario 3: Add this item to your cart and proceed to checkout
Add the cufflinks you have customised to your cart and purchase them (as far as asking for
credit card details)
Scenario 4: Find the returns policy
In case the cufflinks don’t arrive in the post on time, check the returns policy.
Exit questions were asked once the tasks above were completed.

First Impressions Feedback
When they first heard the name of the website they were intrigued as to what it would be
about. The name doesn’t easily suggest what is on sale on the website.
On first glance, participants believed that Loveandrobots.com was a clothing website. They
liked the overall look of the website but were misled as to what was being advertised. They
felt the layout of the homepage was clear and extremely accessible.
Recommendations
On the Loveandrobots.com homepage the carousel of images looks modern and inviting but
rearranging the order may help give a better first impression. A visitor to the website’s first
view is of information about the Loveandrobots.com pop-up shop but at this point, many
would still be unaware of the product advertised. The use of the 3D printer to create the
custom jewellery should be advertised more openly as is makes this idea very unique.
![Page 8: Usability Report for Love and Robots...The use of the website is to register and login, to create and customise accessories, to add these to your cart and purchase them. They have](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050205/5f585cb33dc612187d369be9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Scenario 1: Sign Up and Login
Observations
This task was very easily executed by both users. The link was clearly visible on the top toolbar
of the site’s homepage. In order to sign up, an email and a password is all that is required
avoiding any concerns some web users have about submitting personal details. Love and
Robots also allows it’s users to login via their social media accounts such as Facebook and
Gmail. This makes for even easier ways of setting up an account with the site.
Recommendations
• Confusion may occur if a returning customer with an existing account wants to login
as it is not very clear that the “Sign Up” and “Login” links are separate from each other.
• Another possible point of confusion could occur when “Login” is clicked and the title
of the pop-up box is “Sign In”. Users may think they are signing up rather than logging
in.

7
Scenario 2: Customise Map Cufflinks
Observations
Both users tested clicked on the red ‘Map’ text believing it would lead them to more
information about the product. The contrast of colour against the images makes the true links
less obvious that the eye-catching red text.
Recommendations
• A search bar would allow users to find products more easily. Though the selection is
quite small and finding certain products does not take long, a search bar would make
the task even more straightforward.
• A link on the word ‘Map’ would benefit users as the colour is eye catching and attracts
people to click on it.
• Rewording the links of 'View Bow Ties' and 'View Cufflinks' could be more inviting for
visitors of the website.

Scenario 3: Add Item to Basket and Proceed to Purchase
Observations
This task was very straight forward and easily achieved by the users. The users proceeded in
completing this quickly and efficiently. The choice to continue shopping or proceed to
checkout allows the user to do as they wish with ease.
Recommendations
• Having the returns policy available to the customer at this point would be very helpful.
• Having delivery details (i.e. delivery period) at this point would be very helpful.
![Page 11: Usability Report for Love and Robots...The use of the website is to register and login, to create and customise accessories, to add these to your cart and purchase them. They have](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050205/5f585cb33dc612187d369be9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
9
Scenario 4: Find the Returns Policy
When given the task to find the returns policy users found it very difficult to complete. The
users mentioned that they wouldn’t usually look in FAQ for returns policies. They were used
to having a separate link for delivery and returns information on different websites. Once they
clicked on FAQ it was still unclear whether they would find the information they were looking
for here. The links of the side bar of the FAQ page don’t stand out well. They clicked on
multiple tabs, scrolling through a lot of information before locating the returns policy.
Recommendations
• Creating a separate tab for the returns policy on the footer of the site would enable the
visitor to locate the information with more ease.
• It would be very useful for the user to view the returns policy easily when at the checkout,
but before processing the order.
• Highlighting the links on the FAQ page (General, Shopping & Product Care) would catch
the visitor’s attention more easily. This would give the user indication of their location on
the site and allow them to see other areas of the FAQ section available.

Ease of Use and Ease of Learning
While testing the website, ease of use and ease of learning of the website will be explored.
To do so, tasks were devised so that feedback and results, based on these two pivotal aspects
of the website’s experience, could be examined and presented.
Ease of use of the website is defined by how quickly and efficiently a user can perform a given
task; ease of learning refers to how easy it is to get to use the website’s interface and layout,
and how much can be learned whilst executing a task.
The first task is for the user to view the website for the first time for a duration of 5 seconds
and to report what their first impression is of the website; what they believe it is about, who
the target market is, what it is trying to sell, do they think it is visually appealing. In this case
the website has a slideshow of alternating images in three separate places on the home
screen displaying three sections of the website; men’s, women’s and the pop-up shop. But as
you hover over the chosen section/ graphic or as you spend a certain amount of time on the
page, the graphic changes to reveal images of the products the site sells. This brief task allows
the tester to examine what the user sees upon first glance and to evaluate if the website is
what it seems.
The second task is to sign up/ login. This task relies on clear placement of the sign up/ login
link and that the link they click on performs the intended purpose. Ease of use was evident
due to a short amount of time spent completing the task. They found the sign up/log in tab
swiftly and ease of learning was established when they managed to fill in their details showing
clear instruction, which aids ease of learning.
The third task entails customizing the ‘map cufflinks’. In this case the user would first have to
either click on the men’s tab at the top of the page or else click on the ‘shop-men’s’ feature
on the slideshow of graphics in the centre screen (both equally clear). After clicking on either
of these you are directed to a men’s section, whereby the ‘map’ range of accessories are
featured amongst three other styles, which you cannot click into the ‘Map’ collection as a
whole you have to click individually on ‘view cufflinks’. The user then has to click on the
‘customize’ option, the user was given directions based on which place and name to engrave
![Page 13: Usability Report for Love and Robots...The use of the website is to register and login, to create and customise accessories, to add these to your cart and purchase them. They have](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050205/5f585cb33dc612187d369be9/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
11
on the front and back of cufflinks, so they could either drag the map to that location in the
centre of the screen or write in the information in the boxes to the right. These subtle cues
definitely aid the ease of learning on the website. They then had to add their item to the cart.
Each step in the process of completing this task appears to have several ways of doing it. This
definitely adds to ease of use as it takes into consideration that one way might not be initially
obvious to a user, cutting down on time spent being confused or lost on the website.
Lastly the user had to find the returns policy. In order to find the returns policy the user would
have to scroll to the bottom of the website and under ‘support’ the user would have to click
on FAQ. The fact that what you are directly looking for isn’t immediately advertised can hinder
the ease of use on the website. The user then has to click on the ‘shopping’ option on the left
of the screen and then scroll down the page to find the ‘Refunds and Returns’ heading. The
fact that the user would have to search quite far into the website could leave them doubting
themselves and could influence their decision on whether or not they would buy it.
![Page 14: Usability Report for Love and Robots...The use of the website is to register and login, to create and customise accessories, to add these to your cart and purchase them. They have](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022050205/5f585cb33dc612187d369be9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Conclusions
The tasks were all completed by the users. Some required more work than others but a
general response would suggest that the website is easily accessible. This indicates that users
would rarely encounter difficulties while using the site. Out of all tasks, the requirement to
find the returns policy was the only task that proved difficult. This is a problem that can be
easily resolved. Many of the recommendations suggested in the above sections are for
making information more easily accessible for visitors of the site. They also suggest adding
clarity of certain aspects of the site for the user’s needs, avoiding frustration and confusion.
A key element of the site’s originality is their use of 3D printing their products is not well
presented. It is this aspect of the site that would draw people in and encourage them to
customise and buy products. Promoting this more would possibly increase visitors and boost
sales.

Tester’s Introduction Script:
Welcome and Purpose
Thank you for agreeing to participate in this web site evaluation. Today we are asking you to
serve as an evaluator of the site Love & Robots and to complete a set of tasks. Our goal is to
see how easy or difficult you find the site to use. We will record your reactions and opinions;
I may ask you to clarify statements that you make from time to time.
Test Facilitator’s Role
I’m here to record your reactions and comments of the Web site you’ll view. During this
session I will not be able to offer any suggestions or hints. There may be times, however,
when I’ll ask you to explain why you said or did something.
Test Participant’s Role
I will ask you to search for information on this site to learn if it works well for you. We’ll do
this by giving you tasks to complete on the site. You are also asked to “think out loud” as you
complete these tasks, to verbalise what you are thinking.
Things to Keep in Mind
• This is not a test of you; you’re testing the site. So don’t worry about making mistakes.
• There is no right or wrong answer. We just want to know if the site is well designed
for you.
• If you ever feel that you are lost or cannot complete a task with the information you
have been given, please let me know. I’ll ask you what you might do in a real-world
setting and then either put you on the right track or move you on to the next task.
• We will be video recording this session for further study if needed. Your name will not
be associated or reported with data or findings from this evaluation.
• Finally, as you use the site, please do so as you would at home or your office. I do ask
that when looking for information, you do so as quickly and as accurately as you can.
Do you have any questions before we begin?

Participant Consent Form:
The purpose of this usability study is to evaluate the design of a website. We are interested
in determining if people can accomplish common tasks and easily find information using the
site. The session will not ‘test' you or your ability, rather the site in order to provide
information on areas that could be improved. Please be advised that there are no risks
associated with participation in this session.
During this session, you will be asked to complete some tasks using the website and answer
some questions. As you complete the tasks will be observed and notes will be taken. In
addition, the session will be captured on video for future review. The session should last no
longer than fifteen minutes.
If for any reason you are uncomfortable during the session and do not want to complete a
task, you may say so and we will move on to the next task. In addition, if you do not want to
continue, you may end the session and leave at any time.
Two people will participate in this study. Results from all sessions will be included in a
usability report to be presented to Love & Robots. Your name will not be included in the
report nor will your name be associated with any data collected throughout this session.
I, ______________________________________________, have read and fully understand
the extent of the study and any risks involved. All of my questions, if any, have been answered
