User-Centered Design Process

[edit]

The goal of the User-Centered design is to make products which have very high usability.This includes how easy the product is in terms of its usage, manageability, effectiveness and how well the product have met the user requirements.Below are the general phases of User-Centered Design process:[3][4]

  1. Specify context of use: Identify who the users are, why they will use the product and under what environment they will use it.
  2. Specify Requirements: Once the context is identified the product requirements are set, which must be met in order to make the product successful.
  3. Create Design solutions and development: Based on product goals and requirements start an iterative process of product design and development from a rough concept to complete design.
  4. Evaluate Product: Product designers do usability testing to get users feedback of their product, this ensures quality testing, an integral part of software development.

The above phases are indeed general approaches and based on your design goals, your team and their timeline, and the environment in which you are developing determine which phases you choose and in which order. You can either follow a waterfall model, agile model or any other software engineering practice.
