UX as part of QA
Quality assurance impacts the user experience: when things don't work, users question their understanding and develop incorrect assumptions and inefficient workarounds. One key factor unites the disciplines of User Experience and Quality Assurance (QA) at their core: usability. Quality assurance (QA) and user experience (UX) have a two-way relationship: Most obvious, usability is a quality measure for design. To ensure usability, a good UX thus requires QA thinking. Beyond the user interface itself, many other quality issues also impact the total UX. If quality assurance needs to take UX into account, it needs to begin right alongside the design stage i.e. at the beginning of the life cycle.
