Quote: a capture error occurs when a frequently done activity captures an unfamiliar activity sharing the same initial stages [»normDA_1988] Quote: do not lose information [»cbb_1990, OK] Quote: the contingency design test begins with user interaction errors; e.g., skip a required field, fix a mistake, check a bad or mistyped URL, try customer support, what if there are no results [»lindM_2004]
