Usability achievements based on UI framework with screen categories and state transition diagrams
Anita Kvamme · 2006
This report sums up experiences based on a UI framework that has been continuously used for six years during a set of software project related to the same legacy system.When specifying a screen related to a rich client application it seems impossible to describe all "screen situations" that may occur. This case study shows that by including screen categories with State Transition Diagrams (STDs) into the UI framework, it is possible to describe a complete screen specification in an effective manner.In addition, this report point out the importance of developing wrapped UI components that are strongly related to the UI standard and the UI design templates.
