Σύνοψη	Icon Usability Testing is a systematic method for evaluating how well users understand the meaning of graphical icons and symbols. By combining comprehension testing, task performance measurement, and preference assessment, this pipeline ensures that icons effectively communicate their intended functions across diverse user populations.	Typography Legibility Testing is a systematic method for evaluating how easily and accurately audiences can read typefaces in specific contexts. Pioneered by Miles A. Tinker in the mid-twentieth century, this pipeline combines perceptual metrics, user testing, and psychophysical measurement to ensure text achieves optimal clarity for its intended medium and audience.
