Using concept maps to evaluate the usability of APIs
2010
Proceedings of the 28th of the international conference extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems - CHI EA '10
In this paper we present a longitudinal approach using concept maps and a question diary to make this interaction visible and study the usability of an API over time. ...
However standard usability evaluation methods as known from HCI have limitations in grasping the interaction between developer and API -the GUI, which makes this interaction obvious, is missing. ...
First regarding the concept map approach, we asked our participants not only to place and link concepts but also to rate them on a rating scale from 1 "I don't like this concept at all" to 7 "I really ...
