==Testing details== ===Testing script=== https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ADqFi3hyzCqow_Qxgr0ZpVdhZYEUJMIQyG6T6lM_4dU/edit?usp=sharing ===Testing goals=== With 5.6.0 we've added a number of new features to the app, which we would like to test for discoverability and usability. Additionally there have been updates to the feed design and feed cards since our last round of user testing, so qualitative feedback on new card designs is also desired. Finally, updates to the app on-boarding are anticipated in a near future release, so testing the onboarding flow is also beneficial. The primary goals of this test are to gain insights on the following aspects of the app: - Do first time users have a good understanding of the app and the apps features after onboarding and their first Explore feed load? - Can users successfully find and use the appearance settings / reading themes - Can users successfully interact with elements on the new ‘On this day’ card? **Features to be tested** - Onboarding - Do the onboarding screens make sense to users? - Do users understand why they are being asked - Is anything missing? - After completing the onboarding screens, what are user's thoughts on how onboarding prepared them for using the app? - General quantitative feedback on onboarding - Reading themes - Feed card (Do users notice it? if so do they understand it?) - Are users able to modify their reading theme? (either in settings or in the article view) - Is the disabled state of Dim images on default and sepia clear to users? - Do users find the ability to dim images useful? Preference: are images dimmed too much, too little? - Is anything missing? Do users wish they could do something else with the feature? - General quantitative feedback on reading themes - On this day - Can users successfully navigate to the detail view? - Does the date ordering make sense to users? - Can users successfully use the horizontal cards? - Is anything missing? Do users wish they could do something else with the feature? ===Testing Information=== **Test format** This test will utilize UserTesting.com to recruit users, record sessions and ‘facilitate’ the test. The test is an unmoderated, task based test. Users will be given a set of tasks to complete in a 15 minute time frame, followed by a set of 4 written questions. Users will perform the test remotely. **Testers** 5 users will be recruited using UserTesting.com. ----- ==Findings== ====Overview==== 7 users in total went through the flow, with 5 completed tests (one had audio issues, the other did not read the questions). Generally users we excited about the Wikipedia app! There were a number of very active readers of Wikipedia and even a user who edits Wikipedia. These 'power readers' really liked the customization available to them in the app (recommended reading and appearance preferences) additionally these users were often excited about the TOC and search suggestions. ====Primary findings requiring new tickets==== [ ] All users are still having trouble understanding the dim images toggle on default and sepia. It's clear to most users that the toggle is inactive, but they don't understand why [ ] Users primarily associate the tT icon in the article tool bar with text size, although it was clear to users once they clicked why reading themes would be included under this icon.
