# Usability Test Plan

Plan a study before you start booking participants

## What this does

Before you watch anyone use anything, you need to know what you are asking and who you are asking. This designs the study as a whole: questions, method, who takes part, what you measure, and how sessions are run. Reach for it at the planning stage. For writing the tasks inside the study, see test-scenario.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Pin down the research questions
- Choose a methodology and participant criteria
- Decide the metrics and write the facilitation guide

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## Questions

### Is Usability Test Plan safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Usability Test Plan and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 20e34c4a587e, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/usability-test-plan.
