Usability Tests using Keynote

NALANDA U Anup Gosavi

What  is  usability  testing?  !

Tes$ng  a  new  product    or  a  feature  with  users  and  seeing  how  they  use  it  

Goals  of  usability  testing  !

1.  Observe  actual  users  interact  with  products  2.  Discover  errors  and  improve  workflow  3.  Judge  if  the  users  find  the  new  workflow  intui$ve  4.  Measure  $me  and  steps  required  to  complete  a  task  5.  Understand  the  emo$onal  connect  of  the  user:  What  does  she  remember?  6.  Understand  if  the  user  will  recommend  the  product  to  others  

Normal  Process    !

Brainstorming  Features  

Creating  mockups/  user>lows

Usability    tests  with  

focus  group  

Launch  

Feedback  and  

improvements

Opportunity  !

Crea$ng  rich,  interac$ve  mockups  that  a.Simulate  the  new  product  features  visually  b.  Take  less  $me  to  create

An  image  that  gives  an  idea    how  the  site  might  look

A  login  box  created  with  shapes

Company  name  and  space  for  taglines.  Can  also  be  used    

to  test  marketing    communications

A  button  that  links  to    another  slide

!

1.  Each  slide  is  a  different  page  of  your  new  product/  feature.  

2.  Use  images  off  the  internet  that  are  closest  to  your  vision    

3.  Now  all  you  have  to  do  is  connect  the  slides  in  a  way  that  

mimics  the  workflow  of  the  new  feature.

4.  For  this  create  ‘naviga$on  bu[ons/  call  to  ac$ons’  using  shapes.    

5.  Make  them  ’clickable’  by  linking  the  shape  to  the  next  screen.    

(Right  click-­‐>  Add  Link-­‐>  Slide  number)  

6.  Use  this  mockup  in  full  screen  mode  and  do  the  user  tests  

according  to  the  standard  protocol
