The Drupal community works hard on the upcoming (expected to be released in the summer of 2013) Drupal 8 release.

Drupal 8 aims to provide a much improved workflow for content creators. One of the most critical screens in this is the content creation page.

After some great discussions and design mockups shared in the issue queue, the community has come up with a mockup.

In order to make sure that this is a much-improved workflow, the community needed to do usability testing on this, so netstudio, creator of userfeel.com offered 5 remote usability tests.

UserFeel provides the technology and a huge panel of thousands of testers so it was easy to find the right people to test the new design. We needed people who are regular content editors (post content at least once a month on their sites) and use a CMS to do this. After the initial screening, the right people were found and tests were conducted.
