#Usability-Test Findings We did a Usability-Test with the EDS Team from Zentralen Informatikdiensten ZID Basel.
##SetUp The Setup was a Team of 5 Peoples
- 1 Team Leader who was leading the Retrospective ..* Had to create a new Retrospective ..* Let the team members join the retrospective ..* check if everybody is in the retrospective ..* Lead through the 4 Steps
- 4 Team Member joining the Retrospective with their mobile devices. ..* Join the retrospective (also add a short name for them self) ..* Add multiple comments to the 3 boards ..* Vote for their favour comments
##Findings Problems found
- It is not clear for all users that there are 2 forms in the initial page. Many users try to fill in both forms (join and create retrospective)
- User had a while to understand to add a second sticky-note they had to click the button in the board header. (+) many thought this is a button to collapse the board.
- On mobile devices the hover effect of the icon buttons stays. The users could not see if they had voted or not. (green background)
- Many users try to click the covered sticky-notes. It was not clear for them that they will be revealed later in the process.
What user don't liked
- Why does a sticky-note has to be with title and description?
- Laggy experience on older devices. (Asus PadFone)
- User on the Laptop tried to start writing when a new sticky-note was added but they had to first set the fokus.
What user liked
- Easy to log in. No need for creation of a account.
- Not many buttons to click. So they were able to find the way just by try the few buttons.
- See that other people write sticky-notes.
- They had like a game experience and fun with their mobiles to enter sticky-notes and get votes in the end.
##Potential Solutions Because of the short time we had we were not able to change stuff around after the test-run. But we have some potential solutions we would try if we had more time.
- Make the forms on the initial-page stand more apart from each other. Maybe change even the desinge so the board and background has more contrast.
- Change the add button icon from a plus to something more logic for the user. (same icon as on the controllpanel step comment)
- Make the hover-effect disappear on mobiles after a small amount of seconds.
- Set fokus on the first input of a new sticky-note
- Move the add button from the board-header bar in the board it self.
