ekraanikogemustest

ekraanikogemustest refers to an assessment method used primarily in digital product design and user experience research to evaluate how users interact with and perceive screen-based interfaces. The term is derived from Estonian, where “ekraani” means screen and “kogemus” means experience, and it is broadly adopted in Estonia and other Nordic countries as part of usability testing protocols. The test typically involves observing participants as they complete predefined tasks on a web page, mobile app, or other digital platform, while researchers record metrics such as task completion rate, time on task, error frequency, and subjective satisfaction ratings. In addition to quantitative data, participants often provide feedback through think‑aloud protocols or post‑test questionnaires, offering qualitative insights into navigation paths, visual layout, and content comprehension.

ekraanikogemustest is applied by UI/UX designers, product managers, and academic researchers to identify friction points, validate design hypotheses, and benchmark iterative design cycles. Its outcomes inform decisions on layout adjustments, information architecture reforms, and accessibility enhancements. The methodology supports compliance with standards such as ISO 9241–210 for human‑centred design and helps demonstrate usability gains to stakeholders. Ethical considerations include informed consent, privacy of user data, and minimizing observer bias. The growing emphasis on user‑centric design and remote testing tools has expanded the scope of ekraanikoegemustest, allowing hybrid in‑person and virtual testing environments, which broaden participation and reduce costs while maintaining rigorous evaluation standards.
