# UI IV - Ex 5 - Desirability testing
2 years ago
**Instructions:**
Run a desirability test!
The point of this phase is to make sure the values and the spirit you chose for your design.
- Get back to the values and spirit you chose in Ex 1. Extract 2 to 5 adjectives.
- Prepare a board with 25+ adjectives, randomly distributed.
- Show your design to 5 different people, and ask them to select the adjectives among the list from the board that they are inspired with.
- If the selected adjectives chosen by the users are consistent with the ones you had chosen, congratulations!
- If the selected adjectives chosen by the users are not consistent, that’s fine! Make 3 suggestions about how to make your moodboard and library evolve.
**Deliverables:**
- A desirability testing board with 25+ different adjectives
- Pictures from the desirability test
- A PDF document with the outcomes of the desirability test
- If the outcomes are not consistent with the values, 3 suggestions on how to make the moodboard and design library evolve.
**Tips:**
- Avoid confirmation biais: don’t tell them the values and ask them to approve them!
- Good to know: Desirability testing is great to assess the impressions a design gives to the users. Whereas Usability testing is great to understand what users understand your prototype and how they navigate across the product.

- ‘Interaction design focuses on the design of behavior of a person’s interaction with a digital interface. It is also concerned with satisfying the needs and desires of the people who will interact with a product or service.’ Alan Cooper, About Face: The Essentials of Interaction Design
