What is the project about

Project Overview
This case study explored the design and testing phase of a mobile app, prioritizing a seamless user experience. Meticulous design and proactive testing, involving both internal and external users, aimed to uncover and address service booking issues. Key findings guided iterative refinement, fostering collaboration among designers and developers. In conclusion, early user testing played a vital role in enhancing the user-centricity.

My Contributions
I took charge of preparing and conducting a comprehensive user test and a post-test. I meticulously crafted a detailed report, synthesizing insights from user interactions, navigation assessments, and feedback on the service booking process. I created a key findings list. This list not only distilled the valuable insights gained from the user tests but also outlined specific changes that would significantly enhance the design and user interaction.

What is the project about

Project Overview
The user testing phase facilitated a comprehensive evaluation of the app's usability, leveraging insights from a diverse panel of evaluators to gather both quantitative scores and qualitative feedback. This commitment to refinement ensured that every nuance identified during testing was meticulously addressed, contributing to a more polished and user-friendly final outcome. By implementing the insights gleaned from the testing process, we prioritized user-centric design and aimed to create a self-explanatory product that met the needs of our target audience effectively.
Final thoughts
The user testing process highlighted the crucial role it played in validating our design assumptions and ensuring the creation of intuitive digital products. Often, we assumed that users would grasp the intricacies of our designs, but user testing served as a reality check, revealing whether these assumptions held true. By directly engaging with users during the testing phase, we gained valuable insights and empathy, enabling us to tailor our designs more effectively to their needs. This iterative approach, grounded in user feedback, not only enhanced usability but also fostered a deeper understanding of our audience, ultimately leading to more successful and user-friendly digital experiences.

Planning the test

Leveraging insights from previous evaluations and considering best practices, we had designed an intuitive interface aimed at enhancing user experience. We had particularly focused on the user flow for booking services, the main feature of this mobile application. With the design solidified, we seamlessly transitioned into the user test planification.

In the initial phase of testing, Mortensen delegated the task of developing the User Test plan to me.
I undertook this responsibility by defining the application's objectives, delineating use cases and user requirements. I also selected the members of the project team from Mortensen. Additionally, I established user profiles in order to define the sample of the test, in total 50 users (25 internal users, 25 external users).

The app’s objectives, the use cases and the user’s objectives.

Following this, we conducted a meticulous screening process, targeting individuals primarily in their forties and fifties. Our focus was on individuals who were clients of the company or potential clients, having either engaged with some of the company's services or similar ones. This careful selection aimed to ensure a representative and insightful user sample.

Just before testing, we sketched our hypotheses. Each hypothesis became the foundation upon which we built our expectations for the testing expedition. Following the testing, we eagerly examined user feedback to unveil the truth about our hypotheses.
