PROTOTYPING
Prototyping is a crucial step in the design and development process. It involves creating a preliminary version or model of your idea to test its functionality, design, and user experience before committing to full-scale production. Prototyping helps identify potential issues, gather feedback, and refine your concept. Prototyping is an ongoing process where it's normal to go through multiple iterations to achieve the desired outcome. The key is to gather feedback early and often to ensure that the final product meets user needs and expectations.
THE PROCESS
Functional prototype
Functionality testing is a comprehensive process that examines prototype features and functions to validate their alignment with design specifications and intended functionality. By executing predefined test cases, we assess for prototype discrepancies and flaws in behavior across different scenarios, ensuring it performs reliably and consistently. Functional testing is a critical phase that contributes to the enhancement of your product's quality and the mitigation of potential issues prior to release.
UX Testing
Design iteration involves a cyclical process of refining and enhancing the prototype's design through multiple rounds of feedback, analysis, and improvement. With each iteration, design elements are adjusted based on user functional testing, UX testing, and stakeholder input to address issues and optimize prototype functionality and aesthetics. This iterative approach leads to continuous enhancements, resulting in a more polished and effective final design that's ready for production.

A functional prototype is a tangible and working version of a product that demonstrates its core functionalities and features. It allows designers, engineers, and stakeholders to test and validate the design concept and functionality before moving on to full-scale production. Functional prototypes provide valuable insights into the product's performance, user experience, and potential areas for improvement

UX testing is a crucial phase that focuses on evaluating the user experience aspects of your prototype's functionality, design, and interactions. Through a series of tests and assessments, we gauge how well users can interact with the prototype, identifying usability issues, navigation challenges, and potential improvements. This testing process helps us ensure that your product will not only work correctly but also provides an intuitive and satisfying experience.
