## How to do it

1. Pick what you’ll test. Choose something, such as a sketch, <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/prototyping/" class="usa-link">prototype</a>, or even a "competitor's product" that might help users accomplish their goals.
1. Plan the test. Align your team on the scenarios the test will focus on, which users should participate (and how you'll <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/recruiting/" class="usa-link">recruit</a> them), and which team members will moderate and observe. Prepare a <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/usability-test-script/" class="usa-link">usability test script</a>.

Prepare a <a href="https://guides.18f.gov/ux-guide/usability-test-script/" class="usa-link">usability test script</a>.
1. Recruit users and inform their consent. Provide a way for potential participants to sign up for the test. Pass along to participants an <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/participant-agreement/" class="usa-link">agreement</a> explaining what participation will entail. Clarify any logistical expectations, such as screen sharing, and how you'll share links or files of whatever it is you're testing.
1. Run the tests. Moderators should verbally confirm with the participant that it’s okay to record the test, ask participants to think outloud, and guide the participant through the session. Observers should contribute to a <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/rolling-issues-log/" class="usa-link">rolling issues log</a> and relay any in-session questions to the moderator, refraining from interrupting the session from the participant's point of view. Engage your team in a <a href="{{site.baseurl}}/interview-debrief/" class="usa-link">post-interview debrief</a> after each test.

I think the URL may be incorrect here -- there seems to be an extraneous /-debrief at the end of the URL you changed.

You are correct. Thanks for catching that. The URL is wrong.

1. Discuss the results. Schedule a collaborative synthesis meeting to discuss issues you observed, and any questions these tests raise concerning user needs. Conclude the meeting by determining how the team will use what it learned in service of future design decisions.

# Example User Interview Script

This document is designed as a useful starting point for leading a user interview. It includes example questions grouped along the key moments often found in an interview: introductions, warm-up, topic-specific questions, demos, etc. Edit these questions as you see fit. If your questions are specific or your user’s time scarce, consider sharing some questions ahead of time. See [this checklist]({{site.baseurl}}/interview-checklist/) for running an interview. GSA Staff, please see this [Google Doc Template](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kju19eC5vjqAd6bZCprniLixr1_u1b4Qfs1zVwTn6UA/edit#)
