example 1

[0041] Subsequently, a first example (example 1) of the user interface inspection device according to this exemplary embodiment will be described below. In this example, when a mouse operation is performed on a button, the user interface checking device checks whether the button is displayed with a different appearance from that used before the operation. image 3 is an explanatory diagram illustrating screens before and after mouse operation of the first example.

[0042] The information acquisition unit 1 acquires screen information in a state where no mouse operation is performed on an element to be inspected, and stores the screen information in the log storage unit 2 . For example, if you want to check image 3 "Check start" button 11 is shown, then the information acquisition unit 1 acquires the information indicating the display content of the button on the screen that does not execute the mouse operation on the "Check start" button 11, and stores the information in th...

example 2

[0051] Subsequently, a second example (example 2) of the user interface inspection device of this exemplary embodiment will be described below. In this example, in the case of inputting information on a specific input screen, by performing a screen transition and then returning to the input screen, the UI checking device checks whether the input content is displayed again. The reason for this check is that the user does not need to keep typing the same thing while keeping it entered.

[0052] When information such as text or the like is input on the screen and a button to transition to another screen is clicked, the information acquisition unit 1 stores the input information to the log storage unit 2 . Figure 4 is an explanatory diagram showing the screen transition of this example. exist Figure 4 In the example shown, when the "next step" button 33 is clicked after ID (1234) and password (5678) are input into the text box 31 and text box 32 on the screen 30, the informati...

example 3

[0060] Subsequently, a third example (example 3) of the user interface inspection device according to this exemplary embodiment will be described below. In this example, the user interface checking device checks whether information indicating a processing object in the screen is displayed within the screen. Figure 5 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a selection screen and a screen after transition of the third example.

[0061] After the user selects an item, the information obtaining unit 1 obtains the name of the item and stores the name in the log storage unit 2 . if in Figure 5 When the selection button 42 corresponding to the item "Document 1" is clicked on the screen 41 in the shown example, the information acquisition unit 1 acquires the name of the item "Document 1" existing in the same row as the selection button 42, and This name is stored in the log storage unit 2 .

[0062] Although in Figure 5 In the example shown, the document type "Category 1" is des...

Abstract

In this user-interface review method, information regarding the content of operations performed on a screen by a user and changes in said screen in response to said operations is acquired and a review is performed as to whether or not the information regarding the content of the operations and the changes in the screen in response to said operations conforms to review rules that contain user-interface review criteria.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a user interface inspection method, a user interface inspection device, and a user interface inspection program for inspecting a user interface of a screen. Background technique [0002] In developing a user interface of a screen (for example, a web page, etc.), the quality of usability and the like depend on a developer in some cases, and thus a professional user needs to check the user interface. However, the number of persons who can inspect the user interface is limited, which causes a problem that inspection requires a lot of cost and time. [0003] Non-patent literature (NPL) 1 discloses a tool for automatically evaluating usability such as readability of web pages on a screen and intelligibility of contents, and extracting problems to be improved. [0004] NPL2 discloses an automated tool for testing application software. This automated tool automatically executes tests based on the user's pre-created test case...
