How to effectively test your digital product — e.g. an e-commerce store, website, or app
Testing methods
How to customize a QA process for your business

Know Your Audience - Bring Your Personas to Life! (Skillshare)

CS: Design & Product

User Personas - high-level descriptions of your target audience's needs and challenges - are becoming mainstays for software product teams. But like many other requirements documentation, they can often feel flat, overly generic, and nearly useless once development has actually begun. In becoming “just another form to fill out,” your User Personas have lost connection with their original purpose: to help product teams build connection and empathy with your primary customer base, and in doing so provide the grounding basis for fast and deliberate decision making.
