Yesterday evening we had an exciting session at our local Usability Meetup. The topic was “remote usability testing”, which we divided into asynchronous and synchronous testing. The part of asynchronous testing was covered by Sabrina Mach from FeraLabs, who came from England to visit Berlin.
During the second part we explained synchronous remote usability testing. The setup is very simple, a moderator invites a test user via the web to a moderated usability test. We were able to demo for the first time our remote testing module, which allows for executing remote usability tests for pidoco° prototypes. Our development team did a great job during the past year to develop a system where the test user is invited by a simple email and just needs a browser, an internet connection, and a telephone. The moderator can watch the session live and later on replay the whole session for a detailed evaluation. The Remote Usability Tester will soon be available as closed beta. Watch this blog for further details.
After the presentations we moved on for some drinks with still a big group of people. It has been a pleasure to chat with all the people, especially with our guests from England. The next event will be Friday 17th when the 10th IA Cocktail Hour takes place. See you there.
