Resources
Mock-ups
These are the mock-ups produced following user testing and that the Orange squad are working from.
We already know that some things will change between these static mock-ups and the clickable mock-up that is still to come:
- the "by importance" drop-down is not relevant here, as ordering is catered for by the order-by button links
- the status names will be shown without colours
- we will do away with the options to save for a session.

User research
Mock-up testing round 1
Findings:
- The new design is much clearer and easier to work with than the old columns.
- Three distinct columns would be easier to use than three implied columns.
- Bug number should precede summary, on the same line.
- A small icon would be less intrusive than a "Configure visible information" link.
- The green "Order by" links don't stand out enough. Buttons would be better.
Mock-up testing round 2
- We don't have a concept of a session in Launchpad, so "Save for session" makes no sense.
- It is confusing to use the same colours, but with different meanings, for statuses and importances.
