This would've been a good primer article if the steps weren't presented in the order they were. Thinking about usability after you've set up your test environment, begun logging and fixing SIRS, unit tested and validated your HTML is ludicrous. Usability should be thought about during step 1 and tested all along the way.
I mean, how usable is a web application going to be with usability not taken into consideration until step 7?

I would agree that usability testing is critical. However, the steps in this article were never intended to be hard and fast rules. Many of the steps can be performed in a different order or in parallel.

Yeah, I was always the kid who would pick the frosting off the Dolly Madison Zinger and eat it first, then suck the cream filling out, and throw away the cake, unless I had enough Chocolate Milk to make it go down.
Damn, here is my mind this morning?
