Abstract

Introduction: Initiatives to integrate User Experience (UX) and agile development have been proposed to consider it in the early stages of software development. One example is the UserX Story method; which incorporates UX requirements from the design stage. Objective: To propose and develop a tool to measure usability/UX. The tool integrates the UserX Story method with Evaluative Co-Inspection; a task-based evaluation technique. Steps: The work was divided into defining the architecture; developing; and validating the tool. Expected Results: Based on preliminary validation; we hope to demonstrate the feasibility of applying the Co-UserX Stories method in the context of software development.

Keywords: User Experience, Usability, Measurement Technique
