Elaborate usability tests are a waste of resources. The best results come from testing no more than 5 users and running as many small tests as you can afford.
Placeholders in Form Fields Are Harmful
Placeholder text within a form field makes it difficult for people to remember what information belongs in a field, and to check for and fix errors. It also poses additional burdens for users with visual and cognitive impairments.

“I'm super positive about this app, and I can only recommend it! :) I've been looking for something that brings everything together in one place for UX/UI resources. I especially like the overview of all sorts of events and all the resources brought together like books, articles, courses, and challenges. The navigation is simple, and the user interface is easy to understand.”
