Quality Assurance needs to be done by Designers not just Software Engineers

One of the most important times for a design review is at the end of a development sprint. A design review evaluates whether or not the developed product is in line with the original creative vision and user experience. In other words, it’s a review of the developed project which helps to verify all graphic and technical components display and function properly.

As the design gets passed from design teams to product owners and development teams, they each make changes due to temporal or business issues, which can mean the final product doesn't correspond with the design team’s vision.

Design QA Checklist on Developer Build (Part 1 of 3)

Here are some (non-exhaustive) elements to check in order to ensure the graphics and ergonomic quality of the developed project:

Alignments:

  • Text Block alignments, images, buttons, logos or icons
  • Margins: margins, padding, optical alignments
  • Spaces: titles linked to paragraphs, numbered lists

Typography:

  • Have the right fonts been used?
  • Are the fonts used royalty free? Are they regulated? There are specific rules with green numbers, and Maestro or Visa credit card details.
  • The typographic hierarchy: H1, H2, H3, italic, labels, etc

Design QA Checklist on Developer Build (Part 3 of 3)

Media:

  • Check the pictures used. Are they royalty free? If not, did you think about crediting the authors?
  • Check the size of illustrations, hero banners and icons in the case of a responsive display (breakpoints between desktop, tablet, and mobile)
  • Observe scrolling images of carousels
  • Check video playback (pictures and sound) for any bugs when displaying JSON files created with the Lottie plugin
  • Check micro-interactions and transitions between pages

Responsiveness:

  • For websites, test across several browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer etc.) to detect display differences.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
