Goal
- Facilitate users’ learning of how to navigate the interface.
- Simplify the identification of information.
Implementation
Maintain the same positioning on the screen of the navigation menus throughout the site.
Control
During the other checks:
- Check that the navigation menus are displayed in the same place on the screen.
The verification can also be carried out upstream of the project, during the design of the graphic models, and downstream of the project during the final integration to check that this best practice has not deteriorated due, for example, to the implementation of third-party services.
