Webinar: Agile Usability - The Benefits of Iterative Testing 

Traditional approaches to usability testing focus on evaluating a product toward the end of development, often too late to improve the product. Iterative testing, on the other hand, starts early and continues throughout development. Beginning when the product is little more than a series of paper sketches, iterative testing enables developers to employ user feedback to incrementally change product design.

Iterative testing is especially important for complex products like web-enabled phones and other ubiquitous digital technologies. These technologies overload users and add to the complexity of their environments. This webinar presents a collection of real-world case studies to examine the role of iterative testing for improving the usability of complex products.
