With each prototype, a round of user testing is typically performed, analyzed, and measured, and changes are made. To keep costs low and possible interfaces high, prototyping software is often used. With prototyping software, no coding is required. As you might imagine, coding is a complex and time-involved process. It's not easy to make changes, and it takes time to develop a quality product. Eliminating the coding process is critical to moving quickly and making changes.
