On the AnswerLab blog, LabLog, I posted an article with ten tips to keep in mind while conducting mobile usability tests.
Over the last few years, more and more of the sessions that we conduct at AnswerLab are focused on the mobile experience. We test everything from early stage paper prototypes to live mobile sites. We even conduct mobile ethnography studies whereby we see what people are doing with their phones in the real world. Sometimes you just can’t get the best results from a lab.
It’s exciting to test mobile devices. Unlike testing stimuli on the desktop, mobile studies present many new and unique challenges. I outline some of those challenges and offer up solutions in the post on LabLog.
