LO4/LO5: Extensive User Testing and Feedback

Unit 34 – LO4 – User Testing

A) Navigation (Navigation easy to access and use? Do the controls work on the videos and music if any are available?)

B) Internal and External Hyperlinks (Internal links – to pages – and external links to other websites, videos and review/stats work?)

C) Page Load Times (Does the content load successfully? Does this differ across different mediums i.e. browser or smartphone)

D) Performance [on different browsers] (Chrome, Opera, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer)

E) Consistency of House Style (Colour scheme consistency, fonts logos and layout)

 

A) Navigation

The navigational feature of the website is easily accessible and it seems that there hasn’t been any form of difficulty across several tests. The layout and the links are consistent and are linked correctly from each page. The image carousels are also working as intended and haven’t posed any problems.

B) Internal and External Hyperlinks

The hyperlinks within the website are working accordingly; the link from the homepage (“Click Here”) redirects the user to the Contact page as intended. Each of the navigational links are correctly linked. The social media buttons are linked to their respective pages. 

C) Page Load Times

Each of the pages and the website itself loads quickly and it doesn’t seem like there’s any heavy delays in extended uses. The only noticeable delay is when using it on a smartphone, as it will take a little longer loading the assets than a pc would.

D) Performance of website when using different browsers

The website has been tested on 3 different browsers: Safari, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome and all of them provided the same performance. 

E) Consistency of house style

The style is consistent across the  the different pages of the website. This is to provide some continuity and to prevent any confusion for the user when accessing the website.
