Content prototyping and testing

Testing actual content with users before it is published can determine if it is understood and is helpful. Different techniques are available to test comprehension, task completion, the prioritization and sequencing of content. Prototyping and testing is recommended for content items that will be widely used in different contexts, that will be used by many people, or that contain critical information that carries a risk if misunderstood or ignored. Prototyping and testing can be used to verify user needs.
