Når vi har et ærinde på nettet, ønsker vi typisk at komme så hurtigt som muligt frem til det, vi søger. Og der er ikke noget mere irriterende, end når det er besværligt at navigere rundt på et site, hvor vi ikke kan opnå det, vi kom for. Brugervenlighed er derfor en essentiel del af hjemmesider, og i dette afsnit taler vi om, hvordan du tænker brugervenlighed ind i dit produkt, og dermed undgår at dine brugere forlader dit site i frustration.

Today we discuss the launch of a brand-new high-profile loyalty program in the UK and Ireland, in the quick-service restaurant sector. Kentucky Fried Chicken operates over 20,000 restaurants in 135 countries, so given their global brand, we were super excited to meet Ruby Huang, the CRM & Loyalty Lead at KFC UK & Ireland, to share their new program and its incredible early results. As this new programme uses gamification as its core mechanic, it is called the "Rewards Arcade" - a name which plays on the history of arcade games in the UK and allows KFC a way to celebrate the fun factor and their vision for engaging with their diners with a fabulous range of games over time.

Welcome to another episode of the Testing Peers Podcast.In this episode we're joined by two special guests, Shey Crompton and Steven Warburton in lieu of Simon and Russell. We discuss the best and worst ways we find to communicate in this modern era of remote/distant working. Naturally the Testing Peers are drawn to discuss context but this time from the view of meeting invites - do you tell people what your meetings are about? Do you use a meeting when a message is good enough or message when a meeting makes sense, or perhaps just a call rather than a meeting or message? It's sometimes hard to work out what makes sense and this week we discuss communicating better to the right audience. We don't just talk about meetings but also, messaging tools, presentations and listening skills.We mention a useful book.'Don't make me think: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability' by Steve KrugWe hope you found the discussion useful and would love to hear your feedback.ContactUs@TestingPeers.comTwitter (https://twitter.com/testingpeers)LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/testing-peers)Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/testingpeers/)Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/TestingPeers)We're also now on GoodPods, check it out via the mobile app storesIf you like what we do and are able to, please visit our Patreon to explore how you could support us going forwards: https://www.patreon.com/testingpeersSaffron QA is a provider of recruitment and consultancy services, exclusively for the software testing industry.You can find out more at https://saffronqa.co.uk/  or on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/company/saffron-qa/Support the show

This month we discussed the book "Don't Make Me Think, Revisited: A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability" together with the author Steve Krug and other Product Managers. We all shared our main take aways, and then discussed with Steve about what things have now changed since the last edition of the book was published. When should we try new things compared to use the common conventions, what is different now in mobile and some other interesting topics. About the Product Book Club: Discuss product-related books once a month with new colleagues and the book's author.

Far vivere alle persone un’esperienza digitale positiva, o addirittura memorabile, è il miglior modo per attirarle, se non ci conoscono, e trattenerle, se ci conoscono.La User Experience è la dimensione della progettazione focalizzata sull'uso che le persone fanno di un prodotto o servizio.Uno dei principali studiosi della materia è Jakob Nielsen, noto informatico e imprenditore danese, che afferma che la UX è la sommatoria dell’emozioni, delle percezioni e delle reazioni che una persona prova quando entra in contatto con un’azienda, con un prodotto o un servizio.Invece parliamo di usabilità, intesa come una delle materie di UX, come il grado si efficacia, efficienza e soddisfazione con cui gli utenti si relazionano ad un sistema, quando il sistema è un sito web parliamo di Web Usability.Efficacia è la misura in cui un utente raggiunge un obiettivo di un compito in modo corretto e completo.Efficienza è la quantità di risorse spese dall’utente per raggiungere l’obiettivo prefissato.Soddisfazione è il piacere provato durante la navigazione.Quindi è possibile affermare che la UX e l’usabilità sono entrambe focalizzate sul cliente/utente, adoperando strumenti adeguati per far vivere un’esperienza memorabile e osservare le attività svolte per realizzare i reali bisogni delle persone.Il modello di UX Design si articola in tre fasi processuali:•Ricerca e analisi; in cui si raccolgono i dati per analizzare i bisogni degli utenti, si studiano i modelli dei competitors e si analizzano i dati di mercato.•Progettazione; che consiste nella fase creativa, nell'uso di strumenti di generazione idee, brainstorming, post-it e pennarelli, alberi di progettazione e tutti gli strumenti di agile design.•Valutazione; che consiste in test con utenti, o analisi da parte di esperti in materia, per ottenere un feedback prima della messa on-line.I principali strumenti che si possono utilizzare per creare siti coinvolgenti e user friendly sono :•Brainstorming; che consiste nel produrre idee, senza censura e liberamente, con l’utilizzo di strumenti visuali, post-it, immagini, alberi delle idee, colori e cartoncini, prioritizzando e selezionando le prime da mettere a terra.•Benchmark; o analisi dell’esperienza utente dei competitor, per individuare punti di forza e debolezza, o spunti di analisi, delle piattaforme dei nostri competitors, diretti ed indiretti.•Personas; che sono delle simulazioni di utenti, quanto più precise possibili, rappresentative dei dati qualitativi e quantitativi dei cluster di riferimento.•Costumer Journey; praticamente il viaggio che il nostro utente effettua in tutti i suoi punti di contatto con il brand, anche dal lato emotivo.•Cart Sorting; che su utilizza per creare i menù di navigazione e la mappa del sito, con post-it e cartellini si chiamano i partecipanti a classificare gli argomenti per categorie e inserire un “naming” delle voci.•Schizzi su carta; che creano una bozza di design sulle idee presentate permettendo di raccogliere i primi feedback.•Wireframe; che mostrano la struttura del sito, ed è una rappresentazione visiva della struttura, dei contenuti, della gerarchia delle informazioni e le funzionalità.•User test; che consiste nel testare empiricamente il sito, o ecommerce, per comprenderne l’usabilità con utenti esterni al progetto.•Usability Checkup, che consiste nel far analizzare il sito, secondo principi prestabiliti, da esperti di UX per una valutazione finale.I principali campi di analisi da valutare sono l’identità che mostriamo sul sito, è chiara e definita?, l’Homepage, comunichiamo l’obiettivo principale del sito?, il menù, è troppo ampio o profondo?, la scrittura è breve e diretta?, design, come sono i colori, il font e lo stile?, tecnica, funziona su tutti i browser? È “responsive”?Con l’uso, oramai principale, dello smartphone è fondamentale, quando si progetta la UX di un sito o ecommerce, progettarlo con un’usabilità massima sia da desktop che da mobile.Progettare un sito con una User Experience, memorabile ed emozionale, è fondamentale per ottenere nuovi utenti, fidelizzare i clienti in essere e creare un’immagine del brand soddisfacente nel lungo periodo.

I've been reading Steve Krug's excellent book about Web Usability called “Don't Make Me Think” and it's got lots of excellent info in it about how to make your pages achieve their objective more efficiently, and to also keep the user at the other end happy as well.    One of the chapters is titled “Omit Needless Words”, and the whole premise of this chapter is about his observation about most words on pages just taking up space. He has a certain law that says removing half the words is actually a realistic goal, without losing anything of value. The idea is be ruthless with your sales copy.    Here are some of the benefits of getting rid of words that nobody is going to read: It reduces the noise level of the page It makes the useful content more prominent  It makes the pages shorter, allowing users to see more of each page at a glance without scrolling   The information on your page must be useful and straight to the point. People don't have time to waste on text that waffles on.    While the saying “a page can never be too long, it can only be too boring” is true... I would still say in general a shorter page is better than a long page as a rule. But a lot can depend on the type of market, and also how much the product is selling for.    Obviously a $10,000 motorbike would need a lot more sales copy than a $17 e-book would.     But here's an excellent example from the book where Steve condenses a 103 word paragraph into just 34 words, and still get the same message across       As you can see the original version is way too wordy and I'm sure I bored you to tears reading it out. But the edited version gets straight to the point and is super easy to read.    So now that I've made my point, the question is how can you write in a way that is succinct and not too wordy... the answer is by using the Hemingway Editor App.         The Hemingway App works points out: Adverbs Uses of passive voice Phrases that have simpler alternatives Sentences that are hard to read Sentences that are very hard to read          It also works out what grade level the writing is, with the lower the grade the easier to understand.

Web Usability is far more complex than user testing and interaction design alone. And while interface design is an important consideration, there’s more to a usable site than what’s on the surface. We all know the importance of accessibility and web standards, so let’s take that knowledge one step further and into the realm of usability. In this session Lisa Herrod will redefine the common definition of usability by introducing a greater focus on accessibility and web standards. By taking a more holistic approach you will soon see why usability is more than skin deep. Lisa Herrod is the Principal Usability Consultant at Scenario Seven. The primary focus of her work is web usability, which she believes incorporates much more than just user testing. Drawing on a variety of disciplines, Lisa takes an holistic approach to web usability incorporating user research, accessibility, interaction design and web standards development.

Web Usability is far more complex than User Testing and Interaction Design alone. And while interface design is an important consideration, there’s more to a usable site than what’s on the surface. We all know the importance of accessibility and web standards, so let’s take that knowledge one step further and into the realm of usability. In this session Lisa Herrod will redefine the common definition of usability by introducing a greater focus on accessibility and web standards. By taking a more holistic approach you will soon see why usability is more than skin deep. Lisa Herrod is the Principal Usability Consultant at Scenario Seven. The primary focus of her work is web usability, which she believes incorporates much more than just user testing. Drawing on a variety of disciplines, Lisa takes an holistic approach to web usability incorporating user research, accessibility, interaction design and web standards development.
