The different tools and features available in Adobe® Dreamweaver® CC have enabled you to develop a fully functional and interactive website. Consider what would happen if the website isn't displayed as intended (as in a different browser or device than it was tested on) or some of the navigational elements do not work as planned. Your users might experience errors in planned functionality or might find the navigation or content confusing. All your time and effort could be in vain if you do not take proactive measures, such as usability testing and validation, to ensure that your website works as you intended when it is rolled out to end users.
