FEDORA COMMUNITY USABILITY TEST: Usability Tester 1

  • Date/Time: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 / 3:00-3:30 PM
  • Video File: (to be uploaded)
  • FAS Account: (withheld for privacy for now)

Introduction / First Impressions

  1. Have you seen this site before? If so, where did you hear about it?
    • I first heard of it two days ago when you asked for volunteers to try this usability test. I'm a new maintainer as of less than a week ago.
  2. Have you used this site before? If so, what have you used it for? How did that go? How often have you used this site?
    • No, but I poked at it briefly when you mentioned it in your call for testers. I meant to file a bug because I received a cryptic failure when I clicked on the F12 latest builds.
  3. (On front page) What are your first impressions, looking at this site now?
    • It looks like a standard Fedora-branded website.
  4. (On front page) What do you think this site is?
    • I'm assuming it's a mechanism for picking up and dropping packages. I'm not sure if it handles kicking off builds. I did my first koji build on Friday.
  5. (On front page) Any other comments you'd like to make about this site?
    • The picture of Kyle is a little creepy! I think it's a bit off-putting. Maybe something friendlier?
  6. (On front page) What do you think of this page? Where would you click first?
    • I would probably log in using these fields here, assuming it uses my FAS account.

TASK SET I

People

  1. View your profile on this site. What do you think about it? Is the information accurate? Do your group memberships seem accurate? Do your package affiliations seem accurate?
  2. You've just spoken with Dennis Gilmore and he's asked you to open a ticket for him in a fedorahosted.org trac instance. In order to cc Dennis on the ticket, you'll need to figure out his FAS account name. Where would you go to look it up?

Packages

  1. Do you have any unpushed updates? Where would you go to look this up?
  2. How are your builds doing? Where would you go to look this up?
  3. Let's say you have a friend who is a little bit behind the times - she is running Fedora 9. There's an annoying Inkscape bug that bothers her - after searching the internet for a bit you found out the bug is fixed in Inkscape version 0.47.
    • Is Inkscape version 0.47 available in Fedora 9 for your friend?
    • If Inkscape version 0.47 is not available for Fedora 9, can you download an SRPM here to build it for her?


TASK SET II

People

  1. You need help with yelp. Who's the package maintainer?
  2. Luke Macken is going away on vacation for a couple of weeks and he's asked you to look over his packages while he's gone. How many packages does he have, and do any of them need attention? Where would you go to look this up?

Packages

  1. How would you file a bug against NetworkManager using this system?
  2. What has changed in the 'ruby' package over the last few updates? Where would you go to look this up?
  3. How's the karma of your current testing updates doing? How would you check up on this in Fedora Community?

CLOSING

  1. How well does Fedora Community support your package maintenance workflow?
  2. Would you use Fedora Community to help maintain your packages? Which parts?
  3. Is there any essential functionality missing from Fedora Community that would help you maintain your packages more easily?
  4. Did you learn anything about Fedora Community's functionality through this test?
  5. What do you think is the most useful function of Fedora Community?
  6. What are the least useful functions of Fedora Community?
