High-Fidelity Mockups
Mockups incorporated branding with colour, typography, and icons defined by fully developed high-scale Design System to ensure clarity, accessibility, and scalability.
Design Alignment
Final mockups served as blueprints, aligning design vision across teams for seamless development.
Post-Design User Testing
After launching the live environment, we conducted usability testing to validate design decisions and uncover improvement opportunities. Feedback was synthesized into actionable recommendations andorganized using a Kanban workflow for clarity and prioritization.
The board included columns for:
Recommended Changes:
Initial suggestions from testing (e.g., improve settings menu descriptions, allowdeeper configuration of critical functions).
Prioritized for Action:
High-impact items requiring immediate attention (e.g., agent customization tooltips,adding contextual information before activation).
In Progress:
Changes actively being implemented (e.g., providing more metrics and personalization options).
On Hold:
Items deferred for future iterations (e.g., icon consistency across navigation).
Done:
Completed fixes (e.g., resolving confusing agent layout customization).
Blockers:
Items that could not proceed due to dependencies (none identified in this round).
This structured approach ensured transparency, efficient collaboration, and continuous improvement of the user experience.
