Abstract

Over the past decade, with the progress in technology, there has emerged various needs for users to get more interactive with Web applications. Commercial web services have spread the use of rich interfaces to provide users with a meaningful interaction with these applications. Nevertheless, the dynamic nature of the context of interaction imposes practitioners to extract various requirements such as user needs and choose the appropriate actions to perform them. However, in real practice, practitioners hardly combine between exploring the space problem to extract users’ goals and creating a high quality user interface. To overcome this challenge, we propose a set of measurements criteria basically integrated into specific comprehensive indicators. Our goal is to evaluate the main aspects of quality requirements (Design, security). Thus, practitioners will have a flexible support based on a high quality model to improve the extracted services and the usability of commercial Web-based application in a dynamic context.
