Authors of this paper propose as one of usability criteria of GUl elements the level of user 's errors that can be registered during performance of routine tasks. These tasks, lead by the authors in the form of on experiment, had the structure of psycho-diagnostic computer tests, such as proof-reader 's test, and memory test. The series of completed tests was based on on algorithms and testing applications developed by the authors.
