## Heuristic evaluation mode
|
|
221
|
+
|
|
222
|
+
Run this mode when the request asks for a heuristic evaluation ("heuristic evaluation", "HE",
|
|
223
|
+
"evaluasi heuristik"). It follows NN/g's method against Nielsen's 10 heuristics, and AI agents
|
|
224
|
+
carry out every role: evaluators, consolidation, and severity rating. Steps 1, 2, 6,
|
|
225
|
+
and 7 above still apply; the mode replaces steps 3 to 5 and changes the report.
|
|
226
|
+
|
|
227
|
+
1. **Scope.** One task or flow, one user group, one device. Write the scope and the task steps
|
|
228
|
+
before evaluating; without a task, take the screen's primary task and say so.
|
|
229
|
+
2. **Three independent evaluators.** When the agent can start subagents, start three with the same
|
|
230
|
+
scope, captures, and heuristics. None sees another's findings until all three are done. When
|
|
231
|
+
it cannot, run one evaluator and say in the report that coverage is lower: NN/g found that one
|
|
232
|
+
evaluator finds about 35% of the problems; three to five find most of them.
|
|
233
|
+
3. **Two passes per evaluator.** Pass one walks the task to learn it, judging nothing. Pass two
|
|
234
|
+
walks it again, element by element, against each heuristic H-01 to H-10. Each finding records
|
|
235
|
+
the screen and element, the heuristic, the problem, what in the capture shows it, and
|
|
236
|
+
confidence. A heuristic violation is not automatically a problem: a deliberate trade-off the
|
|
237
|
+
brief explains is noted, not reported.
|
|
238
|
+
4. **Consolidate.** Merge findings that describe the same problem and record how many evaluators
|
|
239
|
+
found each one (1/3, 2/3, 3/3). Agreement measures coverage, not truth: a problem only one
|
|
240
|
+
evaluator found is judged on its evidence like any other, never dropped for being unique.
|
|
241
|
+
5. **Rate severity after consolidation.** Each evaluator rates every consolidated problem on its
|
|
242
|
+
own, 0 to 4 (the scale in step 8), weighing frequency, impact, and persistence, plus the effect
|
|
243
|
+
on the business goal. Report the average and the spread ("2.7, from 2 to 4"); a wide spread is a
|
|
244
|
+
disagreement for the debrief, not something to average away. Drop a problem most evaluators rate 0.
|
|
245
|
+
6. **Accuracy guardrails.** Report only what the capture can show (step 7). Give findings about
|
|
246
|
+
conventions and problems that span several screens Medium confidence at most: they are where
|
|
247
|
+
AI evaluators are weakest. Prefer fewer, true findings; a false positive costs the team a fix
|
|
248
|
+
nobody needed.
|
|
249
|
+
7. **Report.** Per finding, the step 8 schema plus Heuristic (H-xx) and Found by (n/3). Then:
|
|
250
|
+
- a table of the 10 heuristics with the number of findings and the highest severity for each
|
|
251
|
+
- the debrief: where evaluators agreed and disagreed, which problems hurt the experience most,
|
|
252
|
+
which threaten the business goal, and which need a usability test to settle
|
|
253
|
+
- the limit, in one line: "AI heuristic evaluation by n evaluators; not user research"
