Present an image with a 5-Second Test

A 5-Second test allows you to add a static image to present to your testers.

The 5-Second test gauges user recall. It helps you understand what information users take away, and what impressions they get within the first seconds of viewing a design.

When should I use a 5-Second Test block?

5-Second tests are suitable for determining the user’s first impressions. A 5-Second test can help determine if your design is effectively sharing its primary message.

Questions can include:

• What is the purpose of the page?
• What are the main elements you can remember?
• Who do you think the intended audience is?
• Did the design/brand appear trustworthy?
• What was your impression of the design?
