The first battery of user tests have completed against the Winter prototype. I have
included links to all of them at the main Winter page:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Winter#Harness_One:_Winter
All tests are annotated, but highlights are included in-line.
The primary take-aways are:
* No tester had difficulty recognizing the search bar.
* All testers quickly grasped the in-page context action ribbon.
* Several testers expressed surprise that Wikipedia had discussions, which lends even
more credence to the idea that Vector tabs are effectively invisible.
* The "Cancel" button from the editor may need work.
* All testers found their way to the contributions page, even when faced with
bugs/difficulties. They just did it in other routes.
I am very pleased with the results.
I’ve created a Flow discussion about this here:
