Usability Testing for the Rest of Us

Speaker: Celeste Lyn Paul

Who says you need a lab in order to do usability testing? The lab provides a stable environment to do serious usability testing, but sometimes you just need to get out there and test a few ideas, not prove a theory. Open source needs more quick and dirty design methods, and this is one of them! This lightning talk will describe the differences between traditional lab testing and quick and dirty testing, give examples of previous testing projects, guidelines for running a test.
