This is really handy.<p>As I do more management (yuck) I find myself having to put together reams of commented screenshots all the time. My process for this is piecemeal - but this would definitely help. Thanks!<p>A few suggestions:<p>1. HTML, Google Docs, or PDF output would be faaaar more useful than Word. I'm actually surprised you used Word here. We must have very different work environments. :)<p>2. I feel like there are usability/UX recommendations other than Nielsen that might be more useful for some audiences. His advice is a bit mundane and abstract for my tastes. Perhaps the <a href="https://userium.com/" rel="nofollow">https://userium.com/</a> list could be of use for some. Having options here (which I agree stinks of bloatware) could be interesting.<p>Oh.. and extra points for using a .CO :)
Hi all - I created UX Check as a side project over the past few months and I'm glad that people are finding it to be helpful! There are some awesome suggestions in this thread and I'm already working on a v2, so feel free to keep the ideas coming.
Hey there, really love the extension! It's nice to have something like this and it's a good way to record thoughts and feedback.<p>Speaking of user experience, you should really use inline installation[1] for chrome extensions. It provides a really nice experience so that users don't need to leave your site. It also allows you to detect if the extension is installed so that way you can remove the install button for people who already have it.<p>[1] <a href="https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/inline_installation" rel="nofollow">https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/inline_installation</a>
Very nice. Something that will definitely prove useful.<p>Note: The highlight box seems to be slightly misaligned vertically on some sites. On one site I tested it seemed to be ignoring padding-top on the <body>.
Great service. Bonus link: how to conduct an Heurist Evaluation: <a href="http://www.nngroup.com/articles/how-to-conduct-a-heuristic-evaluation/" rel="nofollow">http://www.nngroup.com/articles/how-to-conduct-a-heuristic-e...</a>
The site could use a UX check itself. :) Using Chrome on Windows:<p><a href="http://imgur.com/EK3Mu3s" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/EK3Mu3s</a><p><a href="http://imgur.com/SbUmSzh" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/SbUmSzh</a><p>Also, what would be really handy is the ability to download the result not as a document, but rather to integrate it with existing issue tracking software such as JIRA. I'm sure that's on your V2 plans with some monthly recurring plan.
This looks like a great tool!<p>I've been working on that topic too in the last year. I developed Capian (<a href="http://capian.co" rel="nofollow">http://capian.co</a>), a tool to help usability professionals make better heuristic evaluations faster.<p>I'm a full-stack developer and my partner is a UX designer. There's a lot of missing tools in our space. Great to see other people trying to address them!
Really nice extension. Sorry if these have already been suggested, but here's a few ideas from me:<p>When selecting "Other" in the heuristics dropdown allow you to enter your own in a text field.<p>4 levels of severity seems unnecessarily limiting - 10 would be nice
I'm curious to know how the author managed to take a screenshot of the site? I know there were methods to actually recreate the DOM via some 3rd party library. Not sure if things have changed with HTML5 or others means of doing it.
