Worked on a NASA program once, about measuring Earth Science data. We built a database application to gather suggested requirements from members of the earth science community. One such member from our own team helped develop specs for our system. After we built it, she wanted to measure its utility and usability. She watched as users navigated and entered data into the system. She also asked myself and members of my team who developed the developed the software to use it and be measured. I and one other developer (2 of 3 members) explained why we implemented each feature as we were utilizing the system. The "scientist" measuring us all promptly published as a conclusion in her paper "The usability of the system was better for inexperienced users than it was for experienced users. The experienced users took nearly 50% longer to navigate and enter similar requirements". She basically made up an "interesting" conclusion by omitting characterization of our testing session, where we explained how we implemented her requirements.
