“ ... there are no simple 'right' answers for most web design questions (at least not for the important ones). What works is good, integrated design that fills a need--carefully thought out, well executed, and tested. ”

-- Steve Krug, Don't Make Me Think, p. 136

Gawron, Valerie J., Smith, Scott, Joseph, Thomas, Turner, Aric and Purvis, Brad (1994): Challenges of Operationally Testing a Test and Evaluation Tool. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. p. 990.

“Two years ago, a need was identified to develop an integrated set of computer-based tools to support crewstation evaluation during flight test. In response to that need, the Test Planning, Analysis, and Evaluation System (Test PAES) was developed. During the development, almost 300 requirements were identified. In addition, the operational domain was expanded from flight test to both ground simulation and operational test in uninstrumented aircraft. The user population also expanded geographically. Finally, constraints of cost and use of current commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and software were imposed. To meet these numerous and diverse needs, Test PAES took on numerous and diverse components including: 1) a computer system composed of COTS hardware and both COTS and custom software, 2) a set of databases, 3) two models: one to predict the effects of time delay on debrief data accuracy and the other to predict system performance in operational use, 4) a Structured Crewstation Evaluation Process (SCEP), and 5) Structured Test Procedures (STPs). How do you test such a complex system efficiently? How do you obtain the most useful data for basing decisions to modify the system? How do obtain user comments every time they have a comment? These questions and potential solutions were addressed in the poster.”
