Usability Testing for Crop and Farmer Activity Information System
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
Information System usability level depends on acceptance and system convenience to be run by users. One of the methods to measure usability level is by conducting usability testing. This article elaborates usability testing for Crop and Farmer Activity Information System. This system is one of the agriculture information systems that is developed to record system activities for each farm field. This system is considered as one of the important role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for agriculture. This system has been developing since 2017 and needs to be assessed and tested. To assess the system, usability testing was conducted by taking sampling from two regions in Central Java, Temanggung and Gombong. The respondents are system administrators, farmers, and general users with each of respondents has different criteria. There are 58 respondents participated in this research: 49 farmers, 3 system administrators, and 6 general users. Usability testing was carried out by giving respondents several test tasks based on the system. Each respondent had different kind of test task in accordance with the system functionality for each user. The result of the test found that system administrator user interface assessment value gained average percentage of 69%, while the farmers gained 76% and general users gained 79%. From the test, it also bring some recommendations for system refinement. Those recommendations were taken from user inputs and user test results. The recommendations have been made to bring better system environment.
