UX folks get caught up the in the “You shoulds…” and “You musts…” all time. “You should…always stay behind the glass.” “You should avoid interacting directly with the participants.” “You must…follow the script exactly.” “You must conduct tests in controlled spaces like labs.” Which can lead to “You did what?!” when I tell folks what we conduct usability outside the lab, including feet on the street research and follow me homes. Includes 2 examples from the White House Presidential Innovation Fellows program and TurboTax.
