This week we talk about the usability testing and i think it is very useful to my group. As we are doing a t-shirt online shop and we have already made a mock up of it, we try to get some people to take part in it and see what result will come up.
We find 4 students from different countries to take part in it (They are from Australia, Thailand and Hong Kong respectively). We find that there are some mistakes of our website, liking there are some missing buttons and students did not know what the next step is in the designing process. They are confused with some buttons because the drawing is too simple and not clear enough (which I think it is not a problem because when we put the Paper Prototyping in computer and reproduce and those button should be clearer).
We learn a lot during the testing process and also the Paper Prototyping. Before I thought that Paper Prototyping is a kind of wasting time and I am not willing to get into it with my group mates. But finally we did and it took us nearly 3 hours to finish and it has 44 pages. I find that there are many detailed thing we have to take care (like the payment process, the shipping process and the user guide), creating a website is not that easy.
