  • Profession - if Student, which field of study
  • Existing Experience with Usability Testing Tools

About the Tool: Quantitative:

  • Completion Time
  • Task Success/Failure
  • SUS
  • Pre-Test-Interview

Qualitative:

  • Think Aloud
  • Post-Test-Interview

The Participant Number agreed on with our supervisor is N>=15.

Pre Study We conducted a pre-Study with n<5 users to make out any inconsistencies or design mistakes in our study. Lessons learned are the following:

  • Video Recording of the subject is not meaningful, therefore we will refrain from doing that in order to facilitate a more pleasant test experience for our participants
  • Test is conducted between-subjects, learning should be prohibited as compared to testing Morae as well as the OBS-Tool
  • Instructions concerning the configuration of OBS-Studio as well as the Morae-Recorder should be provided to the participants
