Although UX designers usually consider various different design directions early during projects, ed<\/a> adiposity<\/a> they typically choose one design to develop further—long before conducting the first usability test. However, dosage<\/a> testing multiple designs early in a project can provide much more useful information than testing just a single design solution. When participants can experience two or more designs during testing, order<\/a> they can provide better feedback. As a result, you can gain greater insight into the elements of each design that work well and those that cause problems.<\/p>\n

What Is Qualitative<\/em>, Comparative Usability Testing?<\/h2>\n

When you read the term comparative usability testing<\/em>, you might think it refers only to benchmarking the usability of an existing user interface against that of its competitors. In this type of comparative usability testing, you’d compare existing user interfaces with each other, using quantitative metrics such as task-completion and error rates and time on task.

It’s always difficult to come up with atomic<\/em> ROI assessments, but this is especially true for the user experience, which, in fact, represents the entire product.<\/p>\n

For example, even if a call-center application’s user experience were outstanding and saved five minutes per call, it would not be possible to isolate the direct impact of the UX team that designed the application. Engineering and Product Management have also contributed to the application’s excellence, so what percentage of that savings would it be logical to attribute to User Experience? Conversely, if the intended user experience of that application had instead degraded during development, making calls take longer, to what team should you assign the additional cost of calls?
