Introduction
To get a better idea of when the proof of concept can be considered a success I set up a list of success criteria. These criteria are based on interviews with the end users, and stakeholders/experts. By gathering input from these groups I wanted to make sure that the POC would meet their needs and expectations. The success criteria will help as a benchmark to determine how effective the POC is. This helps to make sure the project goals are in line with the user requirements and stakeholder expectations.
Abstract
For the POC I created several success criteria to help with the development and evaluation process. These criteria are:
- The proof of concept can generate a temporary theme pages based on a prompt.
- The proof of concept can generate a temporary theme pages faster than a developer could make it.
- The proof of concept has integrations with Magento and Storyblok
- The proof of concept can convey an existing brand style.
- The generated pages can be edited by users.
- The generated pages are semantic/WCAG complaint.
- The proof of concept can publish a generated page to AWS
- The proof of concept is easy to use.
Conclusion
These criteria help me focus on the most important factors and determine whether or not the POC is a success. By having these specific goals I can measure how well the POC performs. Each criterion is a checkpoint which allows me to see if the project meets important needs like speed, ease of use, and ability to integrate with other systems. This approach makes sure I don't miss anything important and gives me a good way to judge the project. Also having these clear goals helps me spot any areas that need improvement and shows me what needs to be worked on next.
