USABILITY TESTING OF VIRTUAL KEYBOARD IN TOUCH SCREEN WITH QUESTIONNAIRE METHOD
Abstract: A system consists of
input, process, and output. User interface is a place forusers to interact in
the system where one of the functions is as input facility of the system.One of
the input tools is keyboard. With the development of touchscreen, then virtual keyboard
is required. A good interface must be able to be used easily especially for
novice users. The usability testing is required to know the usability level of
the interface. A good usability has characteristics of effective to use
(effectiveness), effcient to use (effciency), safe to use (safety), having good
utility (utility), easy to learn (learnability) and easy toremember how to use
(memorability). Usability testing is an evaluation approach involvingusers.
With usability testing, it is expected that it can give positive inputs in
designing aninterface especially virtual keyboard interface mainly with the
characteristics of easy to learn (learnability), and easy to remember how to
use (memorability) so that the resulted designcan have good usability level
