Visual Analytics
Mouse move heat maps
individual and
aggregated, show where
customers focus their
attention via the mouse
pointer (80% correlation
with eye gazing).
Attention maps show
how much time was
spent on a horizontal
band of content.
Mouse click heat maps
individual and
aggregated, show what
gets the most clicks or
doesn’t get any at all.
Scroll reach maps
measure how far down
the page customers go.

Engagement Funnels & Analytics

Qualitative User Testing
Moderated testing with an experienced host
• Profiled test customers using cross organization demographics data
• Place the test subject at ease and set the scene with a quick conversation about their
shopping habits and topical interests. eg if they are thinking about buying a handbag as a
gift for a friend or themselves – we can tailor the test to match their existing interest.
• Observations are recorded – audio/video and usability analytics in addition to the testing
host taking notes and marking cue points in the test session for followup review.
• Desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets will be used for testing
• The test scenarios and KPIs being targeted are provided by direction from organizational,
business and brand stakeholders.

Qualitative User Testing

A/B & Multivariate Testing
Current A/B testing (Google Optimizer)
• limited to production sites
• requires final creative design and functionality
• limited to a few areas of high ROI due to effort involved
Visual Analytics and Rich Media Testing will support early A/B
testing for UI and Creative concepting with smaller test groups.
Each tool can be used on prototypes, development servers and
QA servers for previously unavailable testing processes.

15.
User Testing Methodology
Frequency of testing/observation
• Real time session monitoring, analytics with sample set of users
• Annual in-depth user testing, analytics: 7-10 scenarios
• Project based user testing, analytics for new features, regional launches.
Duration for User Testing
• 1 hour sessions with 5 – 10 test participants

16.
User Testing Roadmap
Visual Analytics – Now. We have begun the rollout this week
• First will be anonymous sessions, full transaction
• Next will be logged in user sessions, full transaction
Usability testing – Early November
• First will be remote un-moderated but profiled, to validate user scenarios
• Next will be on-site moderated testing as well as remote testing on a larger scale
International Testing – TBD
• We are working on vendor support for international testing using the same
scenarios as for the US market
