Usability Lab

[Steve Lee]

Yesterday's usability lab went well - once we got connectivity
sorted..We had 7 testers yesterday and Dave de Roure is trying it out
today

From a quick scan
of the answers there's some useful feedback in addition to a couple of
issues we had already identified. Answers cover issues from problems
with device on screen keyboards, to being surprised by the 'not
implemented yet screens'.

The most common issue mentioned verbally to me was lack of navigation
between screens.

No one used the desktop or laptop, and a couple used their own
devices. I was so busy swapping Dell Streak stories with James
Cummings that I forgot to mention there are technical problems with
old Android browsers. Still, we soon remembered

James WIlson is performing some testing today and as he left yesterday
said 'Well I hope our system works as well as that tomorrow'.
Well done Ross.

Thanks Steve - sounds encouraging.

I look forward to the full evaluation report. Will it be possible to
share the raw data export from the survey questions prior to the
report being available?
