UTE
The Usability Testing Environment (UTE) is a tool that assists quantitative usability evaluation of websites and web applications. As an automated usability testing tool, UTE provides assistance in all phases of website usability testing. UTE also automates the capture of usability data in detail not possible by a human observer.
The UTE consists of two tightly-integrated applications. The first is the UTEmanager which helps a tester set up test scenarios (tasks) as well as survey and demographic questions. The UTEmanager also compiles the test results and produces customized reports and summary data which can be used as quantitative measures of usability observations and recommendations.
The second UTE application is the UTErunner. The UTErunner presents the test participants with the test scenarios (tasks) as well as any demographic and survey questions. In addition, the UTErunner tracks the actions of the subject throughout the test including clicks, keystrokes, and scrolling.
Using the Usability Testing Environment reduces the time required to compile observations and generate recommendations from a few weeks to a few days--or less. In addition, testers will have actual data to reinforce all observations and recommendations. UTE also requires more thoughtful consideration of what to test during test creation ensuring more useful results.
A single UTE license allows for installation of the UTEmanager on a single machine. UTErunner can be installed on an unlimited number of computers allowing participants to take the test wherever you would like them to. Purchase of a UTE license also includes one year of UTE Maintenance and Support which entitles the licensee to any major or minor product update as well as premium UTE support and access to UTE custom reporting.
The Usability Testing Environment is revolutionizing usability testing and evaluation of web-based content and applications.
