Usability engineering is a challenge in preparation, execution and analysis. In this paper we describe several facilitation methods for test execution and succeeding data analysis. On the one hand, the experimental manager is supported by speech control and a semi automated test flow. On the other hand, the appearing data is logged in a way that allows to replay the whole experiment authentically afterwards and eases data analysis substantially. The combination of the described methods leads to more objective and consistent data as well as an efficient test execution and data survey. 1.
