Personas
A
Effective personas:
Represent a major user group for your website
Express and focus on the major needs and expectations of the most
important user groups
Give a clear picture of the user's expectations and how they're
likely to use the site
Aid in uncovering universal features and functionality
Describe real people with backgrounds, goals, and values
Developing Personas
To
Personas
Does the persona appear realistic to people who deal with customers day-today?
Is the number of personas small enough for the design team to remember
the name of each one, with one of the personas identified as primary?
Can the development team use the persona as a practical tool to make
design decisions?
Use Cases
A
Use Cases
A use case (or set of use cases) has these characteristics:
Organizes functional requirements
Models the goals of system/actor (user) interactions
Records paths (calledscenarios) from trigger events to goals
Describes one main flow of events (also called a basic course of
action), and possibly other ones, calledexceptionalflows of events
(also called alternate courses of action)
Is multi-level, so that one use case can use the functionality of
another one.
