Steps
- 1Test ONE flow with 5 participants; depth beats breadth here
- 2Script tasks identical for everyone; improvise probes only
- 3Time-box sessions to 10 minutes respecting volunteers
- 4Note severity immediately after each session while fresh
- 5Stop when three consecutive users succeed — you learned it
- 6Report as directional evidence, never statistical proof
Common Pitfalls
- ▲Leading participants past obstacles to finish the sample
- ▲Generalizing café demographics to your entire audience
