Abstract :

In this research, Rasa user interface is evaluated using heuristic approach. Results showed that in designing Rasa user interface, 64 percent of needed criteria were observed and the most observed one belongs to the aesthetics (90 percent), and the least observed one was 70 percent belonging to the error prevention. Results of this research show that although most of the criteria have been observed but there are a lot of problems in user interface of Rasa software which should be considered.
