In usability testing, what consensus from users is enough to throw out an idea in future iterations? @Mervin Thanks. The conglomeration of features for page #2 seems like a good approach for this. For page #4, all 3 ideas contain the same information but present it with different layouts. Should I throw out the Page #4 idea that only got 20% of the vote, so to speak - and keep fleshing out or combining the top two ideas? The client has some restrictions regarding color schemes but gives me some latitude. This test was mostly a test of layouts, findability, and interactions such as signup forms - plus the "which version of the page do you like better?" questions. |

In usability testing, what consensus from users is enough to throw out an idea in future iterations? @LauraPaplaFord Thanks! I moderated tests with 5 users and had 10 more evaluate it via a survey. I was trying to test with 10 users, but the client has a low budget and the rewards we were giving (so far) were not enough to recruit more testers, hence the survey. |

In usability testing, what consensus from users is enough to throw out an idea in future iterations? @MarjanVenema I was thinking of mentioning A/B testing in the question - that's how I think of it too - but went with usability testing because it seems more generic to me. From what I've read today about A/B testing, it seems that is for an at least partially developed product. Mine hasn't gone into formal development yet; it's still in Axure. The way I understand UAT from my former jobs in software development, UAT takes place after development and integration testing are done, and I'm not there yet. |

What fonts are good and which ones should we avoid for our application's UI? Title fonts or copy fonts? |

How do you handle not being allowed to do stakeholder interviews? To clarify: my client is looking to expand their user base and social media reach. They maintain about 8 Facebook pages with ~4000-5000 likes among them. Most of the existing users match one of the personas I anticipate for the design. The other organizations have hundreds of thousands, or over a million, Facebook likes each. They represent a better cross-section of the general population in their areas. There's really good potential if I can reach that part of their target audience effectively. |

How do you handle not being allowed to do stakeholder interviews? The reason why they won't allow it is that they said all communications with these people that I am trying to speak with needs to go through them. They are a volunteer organization that has a lot of youth participation. They've had some problems with some of their participants being rude/uncivil about and toward these other organizations. In effect, they're telling me I can't talk to these people directly as a way to protect them. I just think it's keeping me from doing my job as well as I can. The other organizations have huge user bases that I can access by interacting with these people. |
