This usability test was designed from the ground up to build a better understanding of both what makes a website easy to navigate, and to also see a site through the eyes of someone else. For this assignment we were required to write our own usability test, source our own users for the test, and then compile our findings in a report. The report includes our methodology, results, and recommendations for how to improve the site based upon the gathered data from our test users.
