Teena Tiwari Parmar, Kshama Paithankar, Shri Vaishnav · 2015
Various data collection methods are available to serve the purpose of fulfilling usability requirements. Though all these methods are equally useful for data collection, the scale of influence of these methods varies in different classes of software in order to fulfil usability requirements. Observations strengthen the fact that to attain software usability, usability requirements must be determined and fulfilled throughout software development. Therefore, it is required to identify the Usability Data Collection Methods (UDCM) with preferences. In this paper, we propose to prioritize aforesaid UDCMs by computing some metrics referring different classes of software. Case study has also been performed considering three classes of software. The proposed work is useful to understand the importance of UDCMs and further for usability measurement considering specific nature of software. Also, it will lead to provide ease to developers and thereby maximizing user satisfaction as well.
