One of the goals for this week, aside from getting the remaining features implemented and partially tested, was to have some people use the app. So far I have shown my app to a few friends and had them create accounts and log in to the live site. This was very enlightening for several reason and slightly change some of the development we did this week. During the testing, I encountered some bugs that we needed to address and I think we got all of the ones that were observed during that first user test. Some other things that were brought to light was how we were presenting the information to people. This topic was touched on a bit during the pitch as well. Specifically, that the missions lead directly to the wizard without any context for what the purpose of the mission is with respect the the story that the application is suppose to be delivering to people.
In all, I would say that we got a lot of valuable information with the first few user tests and I am hoping that between now and our next pitch day, that we will have some more user tests that will be able to help bring to light any short comings that we night need to address. Unfortunately, with only a few weeks left in the semester, any issues that we address must be almost exclusively aesthetic since nothing else should really be changed in terms of implemented features.
