About Moderated Usability Testing Template
The Moderated Usability Testing Template helps you guide people to express their implicit ideas about a design, providing valuable insights into its strengths and weaknesses and the underlying reasons for them.
This method allows a team to gain a deeper understanding of potential issues and to identify areas where improvements can be made. By conducting only six to nine of these tests, a team can uncover as much as 80% of the design issues, making it a highly efficient and cost-effective approach for enhancing a potential solution's overall efficiency, effectiveness, and satisfaction.

They are best for testing broad concepts and validating ideas. Low fidelity prototypes help product and UX teams study product or service functionality by focusing on rapid iteration and user testing to inform future designs. The focus on sketching and mapping out content, menus, and user flow allows both designers and non-designers to participate in the design and ideation process. Instead of producing linked interactive screens, low fidelity prototypes focus on insights about user needs, designer vision, and alignment of stakeholder goals.

The lower left quadrant represents quick wins, while the upper left quadrant consists of luxury items that may be costly with limited returns. The upper right quadrant contains strategic items that require significant investments for substantial results. Finally, the lower right quadrant houses the most valuable items, offering high impact at a lower cost.
