Task 6: Test website
Assessment Objective 6
In this task you will print out the website. You will then test a number of areas of your website using a test table. This will enable the website to be improved, making it better for the future.
Use the activities below to produce evidence for your assignment.
6.A You will print out the pages for Assessment Objective 2 (see page 15) now that you have addressed Assessment Objectives 3, 4 and 5.
To achieve a Distinction, whole pages will be printed.
(Webpages must be printed from a web browser)
6.B Produce a test table for use when testing the website. You must conduct at least four tests from the following:
suitability for target audience
purpose of website
use of consistent housestyle
navigation system
use of different components
interactive elements
hyperlinks
user form
ease of use.
At Pass level at least four tests must be carried out. To achieve a Merit, at least five tests that cover the main areas of the website must be carried out. To achieve a Distinction, at least six tests must be carried out that cover all the main areas of the website and any action required to solve any problems must be given.
(The test table could be produced using a word-processed document)
6.C Where appropriate, for the tests carried out for Part B, provide annotated webpages, code or screenshot printouts highlighting before and after changes.
At Pass level, there is no requirement to complete Part C. At Merit and Distinction level if you have found no problems during your testing, this must be recorded on the test table and no further evidence will be required for Part C.
(This must be evidenced using annotated screenshots, printouts of HTML code or by annotations on your test table from Part B)
