User Test #5

Task 1

  • Difficulties
    • Frustrated by not being able to find a way to select all for a given shift on a given day of week
    • Did not see scroll bar initially (probably #paperprototypeproblems) but was expecting left/right arrows to go to previous/next month
    • Had trouble differentiating between evening and night shifts, referred to the three shifts as morning, afternoon/sundown, and evening while thinking aloud
  • Successes
    • Learned the behavior of the cursor after some experimenting

Task 2

  • Difficulties
    • Tried initially to both click and drag away and click and hold the shift he wanted to remove
    • Misread “Remove shift” as “Rename shift” and thought the eraser icon looked like a trash can (probably handwriting/drawing #paperprototypeproblems)
