=== Usability testing ===

[[Usability testing]] is to check if the user interface is easy to use and understand. It is concerned mainly with the use of the application. This is not a kind of testing that can be automated; actual human users are needed, being monitored by skilled [[User experience design#Interaction designers|UI designers]]. Usability testing can use structured models to check how well an interface works. The Stanton, Theofanos, and Joshi (2015) model looks at user experience, and the Al-Sharafat and Qadoumi (2016) model is for expert evaluation, helping to assess usability in digital applications.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Taqi |first=Farwa |last2=Batool |first2=Syeda Hina |last3=Arshad |first3=Alia |date=2024-05-23 |title=Development and Validation of Cloud Applications Usability Development Scale |url=https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10447318.2024.2351715 |journal=International Journal of Human–Computer Interaction |language=en |pages=1–16 |doi=10.1080/10447318.2024.2351715 |issn=1044-7318|url-access=subscription }}</ref>
