Works like you need it to
Store information on Multiple Verifiers for single report or group reporting. So if your usability lab has 10 testers report on one or all or by project where test subject has certain properties or characteristics. The XML Question Answer File allows easy integration into any analysis system beyond the AccVerify Usability Test Center. Most importantly you can set up an usability test based on any guideline or combination of guidelines for testing!

Team Features
Because question files are created and stored in XML Question Definition files they can easily be stored on your network for easy sharing and modification. The same is true of the Project Definitions, Database Answers, and XML Question Answer files.
