I need YOUR

help in providing a better value to YOU

. I started my recent posts with many goals – one of which was to demonstrate how I might go about providing value to Rypple and Idée as a tester using the Heuristic Test Strategy Guide as a tool in my process.

I got a few comments on my early posts and then participation tapered off. This got me wondering – am I providing value to you as a reader? Before I go ahead with more posts I’d like to know what I can do better to serve you. My hope is to turn this series of blog posts into a springboard for demonstrating one way to provide value.

How am I doing with demonstrating one of my stated goals – providing value using HSTM? I’d appreciate hearing from you.

We could even use Rypple. It would be a great test and I might get some valuable feedback and so would they!

Let’s recap what’s been done so far:

• Discovered Rypple and started testing it out. 
• Applied theories from the Heuristic Test Strategy Model. Took notes on what I observed
• Asked stakeholders what is important to them using CRUSPIC STMPL as a guide.
• Went back and forth with the stakeholder.
• Started a charter list.

Here is how I could approach Rypple going forward with what I’ve learned so far

• Explore the project environment using HSTM as a guide
• Talk to Tiho face to face to get more insight 
• Develop a rich set of testing ideas using a variety of techniques. 
• Pull from my RST learning, my JItlearning and model the program using different visual tecniques – mind maps, white-boards etc.
• Put these ideas in a safe place. My blog seems like a good place so far

So have I provided value to Rypple? In response to my last post I got this from Rypple.
