Abstract:
Dedicated methodologies for the elicitation and analysis of usability requirements have been proposed in literature, usually developed by usability experts. The usability of these approaches by non-expert software engineers is not obvious. In this paper, the objective is to support developers and managers in a software development project in deciding on which methodology to select, taking into account local strengths and weaknesses. We define a framework based on a set of criteria that allow for the comparison of methodologies.
