Answer / ramyab.mca@gmail.com

Hai...

Usability Testing in web based applications:

(1}Test for navigation:

Navigation means how the user surfs the web pages,
different controls like buttons, boxes or how user using
the links on the pages to surf different pages.
Usability testing includes:
Web site should be easy to use. Instructions should be
provided clearly. Check if the provided instructions are
correct means whether they satisfy purpose.
Main menu should be provided on each page. It should be
consistent.

(2)Content checking:

Content should be logical and easy to understand. Check for
spelling errors. Use of dark colors annoys users and should
not be used in site theme. You can follow some standards
that are used for web page and content building. These are
common accepted standards like as I mentioned above about
annoying colors, fonts, frames etc.
Content should be meaningful. All the anchor text links
should be working properly. Images should be placed
properly with proper sizes.
These are some basic standards that should be followed in
web development. Your task is to validate all for UI testing

(3)Other user information for user help:

Like search option, sitemap, help files etc. Sitemap should
be present with all the links in web sites with proper tree
view of navigation. Check for all links on the sitemap.
“Search in the site” option will help users to find content
pages they are looking for easily and quickly. These are
all optional items and if present should be validated.

K,byeee...
