Question:

this site.
Solution:
Performing
Trunk test on Aliexpress.com
What is Trunk test and why it is used?
Krug described a strategy called the
trunk test, for analyzing a site for navigability. Modifying a site to pass the
trunk test will create a site that is comfortable to users and therefore more
likely to be used for its intended purpose.
Conducting a Trunk Test:
To perform this test, find a site and
click around within it until an internal page is obtained. Then, look for the
following elements:
Following descriptors:
Site ID
Page Name
Section &
Subsections
Location Navigation
You Are Here
Indicators
Search Options
“Site
ID”:Every
page within a site should have a graphic or text identifier that tells users to
what site the page belongs. This graphic/text usually acts as a link, taking
users back to the homepage. The graphics are often shrunken versions of opening
page graphics or contain some component of it that makes them create site
identity.
The Logo/Company Name and/or Top
Header Image design
“Page Name”:
Every page within a site should
contain a brief heading that accurately describes the content of the page. This
helps users identify what the page is all about.
“About Us”
“Products”
“Contact Us”
“Sections and Subsections”:
To assist users with navigation, you
should place links that point to other sections and subsections within the
site. This helps users find all the information within a site, especially in
the case they get lost..
“Local Navigation”:
Within sections of a site (eg.
Products), there are usually subsections (eg. Software & Hardware) or a
list of other more specific pages that are related to the section or subsection
for which we should provide Local Navigation in order to enable users to easily
find those pages. The list on the right shows an example of local navigation that
would be available on the Software subsection page.
“You
Are Here Indicators”:
There are many types of indicators
that designers use to indicate a section is being viewed. Some designers
stylize the text or button of a section navigation (by changing color, case or
text style), or by using a different color button or placing an arrow or
graphic next to a section that is in use, while some designers use tabs.
“Search”:
Every page should contain the ability
to search the site. In the case that users do not find what they are looking
for, they can operate the search feature to aid them on their quest.
