L'inspection cognitive [...] est une méthode d'inspection procédurale. Cette méthode d'inspection consiste à évaluer la facilité d'utilisation et d'apprentissage par l'exploration systématique d'un système interactif. L'évaluateur passe alors en revue tous les écrans et toutes les actions et pour chacun d'eux, il s'interroge sur ce que l'utilisateur cible serait tenté de faire.
