>I think this is where the usability professional comes into the arena

I quite agree that having a usability professional to perform regular tests
to validate the design is essential. However as Donna mention, how can you
inform your initial design, if you don't conduct initial user research.
Especially if (as I'm assuming) the usability tests happen at the end of the
development iteration.
