“Super, keep it up!” - a client’s report from the couch 

Remote usability testing yields some unexpected perks: Our clients are enjoying the opportunity to observe their products’ usability tests from their living rooms. I can only imagine that a comfortable sofa (and I suspect, at least in some tests, a healthy selection of snacks) helps them manage the jitters that often accompany critical testing of a product in development.
