Navigate to the "A/B Tests" tab in the menu on the left-hand side of the Intelligems app. Once there, click 'Create New Test' above the experiments table. Select "Content Test" , then "Onsite Edits", then "Create Test".
Create a test group for each variation you want to include in the test. Fill in the Test Name and Test Description for the experiment you are creating. This information is all internal - the more detail you include here the better! Tests can be live for several weeks, and your future self will thank you for including the details here.
You can add new groups to include in the test by clicking on the ‘+’ button. Name the groups for the experiment and use the slider to allocate what percentage of traffic will go to each group. Click ‘Continue’ when you are done.
Finally, select whether analytics should by default consider only orders containing certain products you want to test (for example something related to a particular PDP), or orders containing any products in your shop. You can change this later after the test has started by changing the option in your Analytics filters.
Targeting is an optional step. This tool allows you to apply specific conditions to certain site visitors.
There are a few different ways you can do this:
You can set up currency and country targeting that allows you to limit your test to a single currency and/or a list of specific countries. This feature is defaulted to your store currency for price test.
You can use UTM parameters to customize your user experience under the Audience option.
You can filter traffic based on JavaScript Expressions under the Audience option.
You can filter traffic based on device type (i.e. mobile or desktop) under the Audience option.
You can filter traffic based off of whether a visitor is new or returning under the Audience option.
You can prevent users from being targeted by related experiments to reduce undesired interactions under the Mutually Exclusive Tests option.
You can learn more about targeting here!
Selecting this will save your test and take you to your website with our edit mode enabled. From here, you can set up any onsite edits you would like. See each of the guides below for more information on setting up different types of onsite edits.
