  • #28 There are other ways to test usability; Expert reviews – mostly a scientific approach to check if the ui design adheres to certain pre-defined usability guidelines. In order to automate usability testing, the automating expert reviews that are based on heuristics and design guidelines is better approach and will add many benefits as well; Jackob Nielson’s 10 usability heuristics. UI design guidelines, we also call it a theme.
