washburn.edu Mobile Usability Test Quick Summary


priority - 3 Configure the viewport

Your page specifies a fixed-width mobile viewport. Consider using a responsive viewport to allow your page to render properly on all devices.

Configuring a viewport specifying width=device-width instead of width=480 will allow your page to adapt for devices of various widths. This may require additional work if the styling on your page relies on a fixed-width layout.

priority - 3 Size content to viewport

The page content is too wide for the viewport, forcing the user to scroll horizontally. Size the page content to the viewport to provide a better user experience.

The page content is 500 CSS pixels wide, but the viewport is only 480 CSS pixels wide. The following elements fall outside the viewport:

The element <p>Washburn Unive…@washburn.edu.</p> falls outside the viewport.

priority - 2 Size tap targets appropriately

Some of the links/buttons on your webpage may be too small for a user to easily tap on a touchscreen. Consider making these tap targets larger to provide a better user experience.

The following tap targets are close to other nearby tap targets and may need additional spacing around them.

The tap target <a href="admissions/index.html">Admissions</a> and 4 others are close to other tap targets.

The tap target <a class="active button">1</a> is close to 1 other tap targets.
The tap target <a class="button">2</a> and 4 others are close to other tap targets.

washburn.edu Ping

Ping is a networking utility tool to test if a particular host is reachable. It is a diagnostic that checks reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. In a computer network, a ping test is a way of sending messages from one host to another. Aside from checking if the host is connected to a network, ping also gives indicators of the reliability and general speed of the connection.


washburn.edu TRACEROUTE

Traceroute is a network diagnostic tool used to track the pathway taken by a packet on an IP network from source to destination. Traceroute also records the time taken for each hop the packet makes during its route to the destination. Traceroute uses ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) echo packets with variable time to live values. The response time of each hop is calculated. To guarantee accuracy, each hop is queried multiple times (usually three times) to better measure the response of that particular hop.
