• What test tasks will the users be asked to perform?
They will start by loging in, checking lecture notes, downloding lecture notes, changing prefrences, checking the forums, submitting assignements, creating workspaces, managing subscriptions, and how to navigate from one page to another and the loading time involved when opening any particular part of the site. The task would have to be listed in a chronological order which has to be suitted to our testing.
• What criteria will be used to determine when the users have finished each of the test tasks correctly?
After they finished their tasks they should logout.One of the criteria might be,we should ask to them or physically monitoring the whole process The criteria would be the success achieved in each particular stage of the given task given to the participants in our testing. Such task may be was it possible for them to log in into their accounts or was it possible to download courses contents etc.
• What user aids will be made available to the test users (manuals, online help, etc)?
They will get assistance from us.We can explain the technical terms related with the tasks.Some video tutorials or powerpoint slides/ some model questions We would not be giving much assisstance to the participants because we would like to see how well they can find their around the Tuubi.
• To what extend will the experimenter be allowed to help the users during the test?
For example when they can't find a link, they can ask us and we can probably show them . If they can't do a task we can show them how to do itsome online use of Tuubi. We would not want to interfare or impair their way of judgement .
• What data is going to be collected and how will it be analysed?
We will take notes of every thing that will happen in the test.
