Abstract
The1 Graphical User Interface (GUI) design is a major process within the software development lifecycle, because the GUI is the portion of the interface that will be in direct contact with the end-user. There are resources to help make the interface meet recommended usability criteria, but tools focused specifically on the GUI design are lacking. In order to bridge this gap, this study presents the development of a visual design checklist for Graphical User Interface evaluation. The checklist was tested in a two-phase assessment process: the first with HCI professionals and experts, and the second in a make-believe development context. Results show good acceptance among professionals, and suggest the checklist can positively assist development teams meet usability criteria. In conclusion, it is possible to assume the checklist can be a valuable resource to evaluate the Graphical User Interface, thus preventing errors and improving the overall system acceptability by the end-user.
