It acts like a blueprint of the application.


Q3. What are the types of wireframes?

Answer:

  1. Low Fidelity Wireframe

    • Very simple design

    • Basic shapes and lines

    • No colors or images

  2. Medium Fidelity Wireframe

    • More detailed layout

    • Some text and spacing

  3. High Fidelity Wireframe

    • Looks similar to final design

  • Boxes for images

  • Lines for text

  • Simple buttons

Tools used:

  • Paper and pencil

  • Whiteboard

High Fidelity:

  • Real colors

  • Icons and images

  • Actual UI components

  • Click buttons

  • Navigate between screens

  • Experience the interface

Purpose:
To test how the application will behave before development.


Q10. What is Testing in UX design?

Answer:
Testing is the process of checking whether users can use the application easily and correctly.

Methods:

  • User testing

  • Feedback collection

  • Observing user behavior

Benefits:
