01 What It Does

Click Test Plan: Test Findability

A findability-study plan covering stimuli, neutral tasks, target regions, participants, and click analysis.

Source-based workflowNot an execution benchmark

The Working Approach

Click Test Plan focuses on findability: the first location a person chooses, the route they take, or what a short exposure makes memorable. Its plan connects the navigation question to a specific screen or prototype state.

The source asks for goal-oriented tasks without interface hints and correct target regions defined before testing. It suggests recording first-click accuracy, timing, confidence, and click distribution. Its sample thresholds and participant ranges are planning guidance, not a substitute for a study-specific decision rule.

Expected Deliverables

  • A findability question and stimulus set
  • Unbiased task wording with predefined target regions
  • An analysis plan for clicks, time, and confidence
See the Example Brief

From Brief to Review

  1. 01
    Set the Question

    Identify the information or function participants should locate.

  2. 02
    Prepare the Stimulus

    Choose a realistic screen state and define acceptable target areas before recruitment.

  3. 03
    Plan Tasks and Analysis

    Use neutral task language, hold tasks constant across alternatives, and plan how patterns will be interpreted.

02 When to Use It

When to Use It

Provide the screen or prototype, user goal and recruitment criteria. The skill creates a test plan; running sessions and collecting clicks require a separate study setup.

A Good Fit

  • Navigation AlternativesCompare two designs using the same findability task.
  • Unclear Entry PointsInvestigate where people expect a setting or feature to live.

Limits to Check

  • Not Full Task ObservationThe source distinguishes click testing from a complete task-based usability session.
  • Benchmarks Are ContextualDo not present the source's example success threshold as a universal pass mark.

Bring These Inputs

  • Screen or PrototypeProvide the exact state participants will see.
  • User GoalDescribe the goal without naming the control they should select.
  • Recruitment CriteriaSpecify relevant participants and any segments that need comparison.

03 Decisions That Matter

Decisions That Matter

  1. Targets Defined in Advance

    Predefined regions prevent results from being reinterpreted to favor a design.

  2. No Interface Hints

    Neutral wording tests discoverability rather than the ability to follow a label.

Provide the screen or prototype, user goal and recruitment criteria. The skill creates a test plan; running sessions and collecting clicks require a separate study setup.

Start With One Deliverable

Adapt the scope, source material and constraints in this brief before running the skill.

Example Brief
Use click-test-plan to compare these two account-settings screens. Write one neutral task for changing an email address, define accepted click regions before testing, and plan accuracy, timing, and confidence analysis without treating a generic benchmark as our release criterion.

Inspect the Result

Check the actual output against these observable criteria.

  • Task wording does not reveal a UI label.
  • Accepted targets are declared before results.
  • Alternatives use comparable tasks and participants.

06 Questions Before You Start

Questions Before You Start

Can it compare two layouts?

Yes. The source recommends comparing alternatives using the same tasks.

Does it run the participant sessions?

The documented deliverable is a plan; actual recruitment and data collection remain separate.

Why record confidence?

The source uses it alongside accuracy to distinguish confident choices from hesitant or misleading ones.
