The personas and task analyses that Team Spirit developed during the Discovery Phase and the task scenarios that we created during Conceptual Modeling provide the basis for our development of usage scenarios. Our usage scenarios describe the step-by-step procedures that users can follow to accomplish their tasks using your digital product and include screen images that illustrate user interactions. Team Spirit develops a complete set of usage scenarios to ensure that your product provides

• complete coverage of all essential tasks in the domain that your product addresses
• appropriate task support for all personas
• usable workflows

Writing usage scenarios is a useful technique for ensuring that our User Experience Design Specification or Interaction Design Specification is complete and comprehensive. Our usage scenarios also provide the basis for the procedures in your digital product’s online help and user’s guide.

Ideally, usage scenarios accompany our User Experience Design Specification or Interaction Design Specification. Once our usage scenarios undergo one or more cycles of review and revision, Team Spirit presents an overview of the usage scenarios to your entire product team.
