چکیده
In this paper, we present the first version of the MetroWeb tool designed to manage usability knowledge and to exploit this knowledge throughout evaluation process phases. The tool supports usability knowledge manipulation in general and specifically supports heuristic inspection. The usability evaluation process supported by the tool is decomposed into 4 main phases: planning, assessment, finalisation and follow-up.
