In reply to Terence.

Did you read the part about design and discovery? Basically, it's what you just described and is the primary focus of the way it will work now. From Helen's post:

“Proper discovery will allow for testing long before functional development begins using low-fidelity storyboards and walking through potential concepts with users, both verbally and visually. Projects should check in at a meeting when discovery results are available and continue to check in through the design process.”
