Abstract
Testing for web navigability is one of the most important steps in the design of web product. However, navigability testing is an expensive technique which requires the use of many human resources. The user behavior recorded in such kind of tests is usually affected by the artificial situation created in the laboratory. In order to avoid such kind of drawbacks, we have developed ANTS (Automatic Navigability Testing System), an application able to observe and to record spontaneous user behavior in his/her own home.
