"Tree Testing Tools for Information Hierarchies"

Ajdin Mehic


Abstract

Information architecture (IA) is the structuring and labelling of
information spaces to make them easier to navigate and access.
The foundation of a good information architecture is often a
combination of one or more well-designed hierarchies and carefully
curated metadata. A good information hierarchy builds upon
non-overlapping categories with well-designed (and tested) labels.

This talk discusses tree testing tools, which help test a proposed
information hierarchy. In tree testing, a group of users is asked to
perform various navigation tasks, and based on the results, it is
possible to see where problems in an information hierarchy occur and
where improvements should be made.
