Abstract
Heuristic Evaluation (HE) is a well-known method for usability evaluation. HE allows the identification of the most generic and severe usability issues with a reduced effort and very quickly. This approach allows the quick iteration of prototypes and the update of the usability of the system before to run a usability study with the final users. This work reports the HE carried out with different tools built for the efficient management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
