User Experience Testing

What is user experience testing?

User experience testing (also known as usability testing, user testing and UX testing) is when a company evaluates its products or services by testing it with representative users. It generally involves people conducting various tasks on a website or app whilst specialist software captures their behaviour to provide an insight into what works, what doesn’t, why people are staying on a website – and most importantly, why they are leaving, so that brands can make improvements and remain competitive. User experience testing can also be conducted in shops to assess the overall usability of the store – from layout to browsing experience.

So thank you for a top recruit and management of these participants, they have been great at responding quickly and giving us full and considered responses.
