Abstract
This paper describes an analysis of user testing using an approximate model that separates user action into Goal Formation, Action Specification, and Action Execution. It was found that the majority of the problems found in user testing, as reported within 30 usability reports, were within the Action Specification phase of user action. In particular, problems in finding an action or object and in understanding names used were most prevalent. The implication is that user testing as carried out in an industrial setting might be beneficial to easing Action Specification whilst neglecting potential problems in other phases of user action.
