We use humans to check layout and presentation since it''s visual and
not something that can be determined correct by a program in a
reasonably maintainable way (at least IMO).
We use scenarios and specs to ensure that the application is providing
the right display of information from the system, and the proper
form/inputs that people should be able to access through the app.
We find the combination gives us a good flexibility to change the UI
while being confident that the app is still doing everything it should
be,
