The field of usability and interactiondesign originally was slow, cumbersome and costly. This was one of the reasons that it was not adopted very fast among practitioners. However, recent years a lot of the methods and techniques have been adapted to better fit the fast moving development processes that are predominant in software companies today. But what do you do when you can't include users because of NDAs? How do you handle the fierce security demands, that are part of your project? Does your customer really know their users, or do they only think they do? And when you have a deadline, how do you avoid UI slowing your progress? This talk is a case story of how UI was included in the agile development process that resulted in the first Danish mobile bank app: Danske Banks mobile banking app.
Keywords: Case story, agile, user interfaces, Scrum, usability, interaction design
Target audience: Anyone who has encountered the difficulties of integrating UI development and testing into the development process. No previous UI experience required. Relevant for developers and project managers alike.

Janne Jul Jensen is an interaction designer at Trifork A/S. She specialises in
usability, human-computer interaction and interaction design, and applies her
expertise to the mobile app projects within Trifork, most recently the Danske
Bank mobilbank project. She also gives courses internally and externally on
her topics of expertise and has recently started a series of GOTO-nights on UX
for mobile apps, where peers can meet, get inspired, share experiences and
learn from eachother.
Previously she was a researcher at Aalborg University for seven years,
successfully collaborating nationally and internationally with academia and
privately held companies on a number of projects spanning from web
accessibility for motor handicapped users to design and evaluation of usability
for children. This research resulted in a number of publications. Furthermore,
she reviewed for conferences and journals and co-organized smaller
conferences. Apart from her research, she taught HCI to undergraduate and
graduate students and supervised student projects on these topics.
She earned her Ph.D. degree in 2009 and a M.Sc. in Software Engineering in
2003, both from Aalborg University.
