@lynleystace: For those who have tested, what's your best advice for a newbie? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:07 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Definitely set aside enough time for it! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:08 am

@lynleystace: How many hours would you spend on testing an app? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:08 am

@DavidBFox: One thing... make sure you're testing as you go along, not saving all testing until the end. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:09 am

@lynleystace: David, do you mean testing with other users as you go? The developer tests as he goes... of course... #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:10 am

@DavidBFox: Great testing can be an artform... it requires you to change the way you think... not as a developer but a newbie (or a baby!) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:10 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Also, I strongly suggest getting other app pros outside your org. to look at it--helps to get at least 2-3 #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:10 am

@iPad_storytime: @lynleystace Be sure to test with as many users & devices as possible. No excuse at this point to have iPad 1 or 2 bugs ... #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:10 am

@moglueDOTcom: @lynleystace you need to work very closely with your dev. and should have set milestones #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: @moglueDOTcom All of the above! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 1:13 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace But you can use up a tester. They'll often repeat the same tests, get in a rut, expect things, not push the app #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:13 am

@lynleystace: I'm wondering if there'll be a difference between testers who have used the device (iPad etc) before & those who haven't. #storyappchat

@iPad_storytime: @DavidBFox Yes, testing is a skilled activity. I waited to see @DashandDitto for months so I could have 'fresh' eyes ... #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:13 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace so you need lots of fresh testers as you move from stage to stage, and a big push towards the end. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:13 am

@lynleystace: Do you guys employ professional testers, or young children, or friends who own the devices, or all of the above? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:14 am

@iPad_storytime: If your app is focused on kids as the users, it should be obvious to test with that age group, but isn't always the case ... #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:14 am

@DavidBFox: I'm really lucky - our grown son is a fabulous tester. Intuitively knows what to do to break an app. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:15 am

@lynleystace: Our app is for middle grade. Do middle graders use an app like an adult, do you think? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:15 am

@DavidBFox: Of course, the more complex the app, the more testing is needed. Pretty obvious statement, but wanted to say it. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:15 am

@lynleystace: @DavidBFox Yes, that is lucky! We have a 3 year old who's good at that too! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 1:17 am

@lynleystace: @iPad_storytime When observing a tester, what exactly are you watching them for? #storyappchat (Probably an obvious question.)
August 29, 2011, 1:17 am

@iPad_storytime: ... always test as much as possible & really, really important to proof all written text in an app, menus, everything! #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: Continuous testing of an app can drive one bonkers. That's why you need fresh testers. #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: @iPad_storytime @lynleystace so, to get honest feedback, make sure your testers aren't afraid of hurting your feelings! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:54 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Typically most app devs. do a good job of sharing revenue, much better than print publishers #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:54 am

@DavidBFox: Maybe one good quality in a tester is that they're just a bit sadistic :-) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:54 am

@TizioPublishing: @iPad_storytime YES! we always seek advice from others. We need honest critic from the world as well. makes us better. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:54 am

@brooks_jones: YES! RT @DavidBFox: @iPad_storytime @lynleystace make sure your testers aren't afraid of hurting your feelings!

@lynleystace: @brooks_jones Ha, yeah, well... Let's not use print publishers as a guide! :-) #storyappchat

@iPad_storytime: RT @lynleystace: @DavidBFox I think there are a lot of people who underestimate the skill of storytelling. Absolutely. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:55 am

@TizioPublishing: @brooks_jones @DavidBFox @iPad_storytime @lynleystace You have to have a thick skin to be in this business :-) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:55 am

@moglueDOTcom: @brooks_jones @betosburrito i think online interaction is amazing in so many ways.. but nothing beats meeting faceto-face #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:55 am

@lynleystace: The people in my writing groups are not afraid of hurting anyone's feelings. Art... it's a 'kinder' community. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:55 am

@LoreenLeedy: @brooks_jones Thanks! Avoids tons of wasted time animating (for example) something that sounded good but doesn't fit in app. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:56 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace That's great Lynley! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 1:56 am

@brooks_jones: Wow, about time to wrap it up already! Great chat tonight #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:57 am

@MathEvolve: My burning question: How did you find groups of kids to beta test your app? Did you give them anything in return? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:57 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace re question about voice recording before coding... try to save voice recording to the end so you can get changes #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:57 am

@betosburrito: @moglueDOTcom @brooks_jones It's true, you get a better sense of reaction to your work. Tried Google+ hangouts for crit, yet? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:57 am

@lynleystace: @moglueDOTcom I worry when I meet people face to face for critique they will not be as honest, though. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:57 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Yep--I've noticed that artists use kindler, gentler language to make suggestions than the writers! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 1:58 am

@iPad_storytime: So true - we learn to see work more objectively, too, so we can improve! RT @TizioPublishing U have 2 have thick skin :-) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:58 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace we might use a temp voice track for coding and replace with final audio at the end. Lets us tweak all along. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:58 am

@lynleystace: @DavidBFox That was our thinking on it! I'm so glad we have, bx the odd word has changed here and there. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:58 am

@brooks_jones: @MathEvolve Extra time with my iPad is usually enough for my kids! LOL #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:58 am

@brooks_jones: @betosburrito Nope--loving Google+ so far, but haven't had a lot of time to try out all its features #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:59 am

@lynleystace: Coder says inserting sound is easy to do compared to the physics etc. so sound has not been much attended to, yet! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 1:59 am

@iPad_storytime: @MathEvolve We found friends w/ kids to test @DashandDitto, plus asked fans of our FB page & gave free beta copies of app ... #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Yep, inserting sound isn't a big deal, recording it can be! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@moglueDOTcom: @betosburrito no, i'm waiting for the product to become more mature before i board that train #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@DavidBFox: @MathEvolve once we contacted a local elementary school and got permission to go in and have a class of kids test our app #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@lynleystace: @brooks_jones Any tips for the recording phase? #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@moglueDOTcom: @lynleystace well, the worst that can happen is you look for another group, right? =) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:00 am

@brooks_jones: @lynleystace Pay for good equipment and a good editor #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:01 am

@LoreenLeedy: Thanks for great info as usual, gang! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 2:01 am

@TizioPublishing: @DavidBFox awesome idea! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 2:01 am

@DavidBFox: @lynleystace go pro for recording. don't try this at home unless you're a pro, with pro voice over talent #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:01 am

@lynleystace: @moglueDOTcom Exactly - that's the beauty of the web. You can find every kind of clique, however bizarre or specific! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:01 am

@TizioPublishing: @lynleystace READ words exactly as they are written! #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 2:02 am

@MathEvolve: @brooks_jones so true lol. But are must of you relying on kids you now or going out an getting groups of kids in other ways? #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:02 am

@lynleystace: @brooks_jones I was thinking of editing myself, using Audacity. I have some experience editing with that. Hope it works out. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:02 am

@DavidBFox: we use Audacity - editing after it's recorded is a different thing. That you can do at home :-) #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:03 am

@brooks_jones: @MathEvolve I think if I didn't have easy access to kids, I'd contact a local afterschool program and ask to test it w/them #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:03 am

@DavidBFox: but if I want a really good effect, I might have our audio engineer do it with their high-end software #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:04 am

@lynleystace: @DavidBFox Doing the voiceover phase is the only part of this I'm not looking forward to. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:04 am

@iPad_storytime: Wonderful chat tonight! Thank you to my co-hosts @brooks_jones & @DavidBFox - you're both so wise! ! Watch for transcript! #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:04 am

@brooks_jones: Yes, thanks to all of you who stopped by! The transcript will show up on the blog tomorrow #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:05 am

@TizioPublishing: We used Audacity, but switched over to Adobe Audition; expensive, but it was worth the switch in terms of time saving. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:05 am

@betosburrito: Thanks for the words of wisdom. You are a nice bunch. #storyappchat #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: Thank you all for coming!! This was a lot of fun! Thanks @brooks_jones and @iPad_storytime for hosting! #storyappchat

@lynleystace: Thank you, everyone. Your advice is invaluable. #storyappchat

August 29, 2011, 2:07 am

@MathEvolve: Thanks @brooks_jones thats exactly what I was planning. I am actually a teacher so I do have kinda easy access to kids. #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:07 am

@DavidBFox: @TizioPublishing One thing Audacity has is a way to select and bookmark each word, and then output start/end points as a file #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:07 am

@brooks_jones: Appreciate my fab co-hosts! @DavidBFox and @iPad_storytime! Thanks so much #storyappchat
August 29, 2011, 2:07 am

@DavidBFox: @TizioPublishing bookmarking words is critical for text synched to voice #storyappchat

@lynleystace: @DavidBFox That's what I like about Audacity too. I've not used any other sound editing software, though. #storyappchat
