Rough outline for a usability test

Intro - 5m

  • Who I am
  • What we're doing
  • Not testing you, testing the app
  • "Be selfish, self-centred, honest, brave. Think out loud. If you get stuck, that's great."

Warm up - 5m

  • What do you do?
  • How long have you used the app?
  • What do you use the app for?
  • What types of things?

Test specific tasks / stuff - 40m

  • "Do this, do that."
  • "You want XYZ."
  • Try not to use words in the interface.

Wrap up - 5m

  • What was good / easy?
  • What was bad / hard?
  • What could be improved?
