Resumen
Quality and time are important factors in software development process,
because we expect to deliver a high quality product with acceptable cost and
deadline. These factors are even more relevant to innovative environments and
small businesses, like a startup. Many companies still don’t carry out activities to
improve quality of use of software they had developed. Lack of knowledge of HCI
evaluation methods and expectation of large increase in coast and deadlines
have been arguments to maintain the current culture in some companies. This
work compares three HCI evaluation methods well known in literature: heuristic
evaluation, communicability evaluation and usability testing. We investigate how
they contribute to designer’s work during conception of their interaction and
user interface solution. We compared the activities, time of execution, used materials,
profile and number of involved evaluators and users, results and difficulties
of evaluators during the execution of methods. This comparison was made
by a designer as part of SoftUrbano’s juridical system for smartphone. The results
can better inform professionals about the HCI evaluation practice and contribute
to changing the software development culture in many companies, especially
small businesses and startups.
