Guerrilla testing

Guerrilla testing is a way to quickly get feedback on your product and to find out if players are using it as you had imagined.

Why use this?

Testing your prototype with just 5 users will help you find 85% of usability problems.

How to use it

Prepare a prototype.
Go to a place where you can easily recruit people as testers, such as the café at the library.
Ask people if they have 10 minutes to test your prototype. To make it more attractive, you can bring treats and give them as a thank you to the testers.
Let 5 users test your product. Encourage them to talk out loud about their experience.

Don’t forget to document your observations. You can also prepare a small list of questions to ask at the end.
