Kia ora koutou,
Last week in a meeting with staff, Provost Wendy Larner said that User Experience (UX) Testing had happened throughout the development of the university's new admissions and enrollments system.
Could you please provide;
a) a very basic timeline of the system's development (i.e. date of conception, build period, implementation)
and;
b) a list of every UX test/session that took place during development, and for each session its;
(i) date
(ii) number of participants and their roles, including both testers (e.g. technical/communications staff) & testees (e.g. students/school-leaver/academic or admin staff)
(iii) feedback received from participants
(iv) how that feedback was incorporated by the developers.

Kia ora Blair,
Thank you for your response and compiling these documents within the time frame, it is much appreciated.
I note that many of the attachments are missing dates/relevant context - could you please respond with a quick one line summary of what each of the attachments are (including dates/where they fit in with the development etc)?
Again, thank you for your assistance thus far!
