Briefing
You are testing an interface (the Midnight Exchange) designed for brothers of Zeta Beta Tau fraternity to trade daily house chores called "midnights." Midnights are assigned by a computer algorithm based on preferences and personal commitments conflict with these assignments on a weekly basis. The purpose of The Midnight Exchange is to allow brothers who cannot fulfill their midnight assignments on certain days to buy, sell, or exchange labor such that these chores are completed.
You are a brother of ZBT with the Athena username test. It is Sunday night and all of the Midnights for the following week have been posted. To begin the test, you have logged in and are presented with the home screen.
Scenario Tasks
1. The Midnight Maker has posted the assignments for the following week. You wish to check next week's midnight assignment to see if you have any conflicts. What midnights do you have?
2. Now that you know that you cannot do Pots on Monday, you wish to buy another brother's labor to do your midnight. The highest price you are willing to offer is $22.00. Place a bid for Monday Pots at $22.00.
3. After submitting a bid, you wish to add Monday Pots to your watch list for easy viewing.
4. After a few hours, you see that a few brothers have offered to do Pots. However, the lowest ask price is $25.00. You decide to buy Pots labor for $25.00. Complete the trade.
Observations
- Merge trades and swaps onto a single page.
- User editted trade rather thanaccepted. Thought that he hadto up his bid in order to match an ask.
- Thought he (both users) could place trade from the watchlist (maybe a good idea)
- users want to click on their user names for currently assigned midnights
- trouble figuring out link for how to "buy labor"
- buying/selling confusing. are they people who are buying or are they offers for people who are buying
- maybe make things clickable, people really want toclick stuff
- adding on watchlist page needs label
