- Jach 14y agoThe 100 questions article does mention Joel's test. I think the Joel test is mostly obsolete (it is 12 years old after all), but the obsolete parts of it can usually be fixed with either a more precise or more fuzzy question that the 100 questions may offer you so you don't need to come up with it on your own. e.g. on hallway usability tests, I think you learn more from a general "do you test the UI for usability?" which may indicate hallway tests, A/B testing, alpha or beta users, or even a response of "No, we know what works and the user will love it (and bend to our will if they don't) and companies that imitate us will get sued".
