Integrating UXD with Agile–free whitepaper

Elyse Sanchez, Thursday, July 5, 2007 @ 3:36 pm

The Pathfinder User Experience Design team has written and published a whitepaper that was recently distributed at the annual Software 500 Conference in Boston, MA. The paper will show you how to combine Agile and UXD practices to get higher acceptance, fewer support calls, and return customers as well as define four key places in an agile development process where you can improve project success by integrating UXD practices into the Agile software development cycle. These techniques include the use of personas, taskflows, rapid prototyping, and iterative testing, among others, depending on the stage of development.

Registration for the Pathfinder Knowledge Center will give you access to forthcoming whitepapers, all of which are free. We have several scheduled for publication in the near future, on topics such as the value and purpose of taskflows, a comparison and differentiation between market and user research, and a guideline of best practices for integrating user testing into the Agile development process. The techniques are presented through scenarios, in which the appropriate UXD activities are matched to the stage of Agile development, with careful attention to time and resource constraints.

Sign up for the Pathfinder Knowledge Center today and each of these informative resources will be accessible to you as soon as they become available!
