Popular UX design Myths
Not long ago, I was talking with a UX designer going over some issues revolving a new app. Along the conversation, the guy made remarks on how testing was superfluous and overrated. Each time he had the chance, he took the shot at saying that interface and software testing just raised the production costs, and how testing could be eliminated by great development. At first I thought it was a joke and didn’t put any attention, but by the third time he mentioned it I just had to ask. And I found out it was no laughing matter to him. You can imagine we don’t work with the guy anymore.
As incredible as it may seem, there are tons of UX design myths in practice out there, and our friend Keith Lang took the task of putting them into the spotlight for the Carsonified blog. Enjoy!.

Thanks for posting the article G. Cutting costs is a good thing but at the expense of ensuring either functionality or in some cases safety. Can you imagine if the automotive industry had taken that stance when it comes to safety or the airline industry? How about the makers of Anti-Virus software? We all want more for less but not at the expense of functionality or practicality or predictability / reliability.
