Usability Testing

Chapter 9 talked extensively about usability testing and its importance. After reading the chapter and the example provided by Krug, I thought that I could run a usability test if I needed to on a bare bones budget. I was surprised that hiring a professional to do usability tests could cost as much as $15,000. So I decided to check out a company that provides usability testing.

Usability Sciences is one of the companies that I found that provides the service. Not surprisingly, their website is easy to use. On this section of the website, it mentions their fees: "Fees range from $15,000 to $75,000+, depending on scope and complexity."

All of a sudden I want to get a job a usability tester...
