Question #14
Ken, an entrepreneur in Leeds finds the quality of the tea locally available so low, that he decides to research superior teas around the world. He decides to market, sell and distribute these superior teas via the web. His market strategy is to offer superior products on a well-designed website with graphics that are fast to load, has high availability, superior usability and fast response times.
The website will offer the following:
-An innovative interactive catalogue of teas, which not only enables customers to buy the product, but also enables them to provide feedback by rating the teas
(which will influence his stock purchasing levels)
Provide the customer with the ability to use secure credit card transactions
Provide the customer to give general feedback
Ken selects an iterative model for the development of the prototypes. The team consists of three developers that are experienced in web development. Ken, although he doesn't have technical skillset, is concerned with quality. He doesn't believe a lot of documentation is necessary and he wants the website to be completed quickly.
The test basis contains the following:
-Story boards that show the information flow and page links through the site
-HTML pages developed to date.
-A statement of non-functional requirements.
With the strategy taking shape, Ken asks your advice on the specific testing techniques that should be used to complete the required testing, bearing in mind the nature of the application and the nature of Kens overall objectives.
We now make the assumption that in the scenario described as above, exploratory testing was selected as being the main test technique. You have now been given the task of specifying, executing and recording the exploratory test sessions.
Select TWO of the options below to define what you will typically use for specifying, executing and recording the sessions?

Based on these results, what would you recommend as the most appropriate approach for usability testing?
- ASince the SUMI scores are largely above market average no further action on usability is needed
- BSince the standard deviation of most SUMI scales is much too large, a new SUMI test must be performed
- CSince the scores are not really showing a high level of user-satisfaction additional usability testing based on use case is needed
- DSince the SUMI results do not provide details, an additional focused heuristic evaluation on the lower scales is recommended
