# What Atlas QA Checks

## Overview

Atlas QA runs a fixed set of quality assurance checks, grouped into nine categories that always appear in the same order. Not every check runs on every test — Atlas QA only runs the ones relevant to your test type and skips the rest.

Below is what each check confirms when it passes.

***

#### Test setup

| Check               | What it confirms                                                                             |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Saved settings      | Your saved test settings are valid and up to date                                            |
| Variation setup     | Traffic percentages add to 100%, one control is assigned, and all variation names are unique |
| Control group offer | The control group has offer content to compare against                                       |

***

#### Traffic split

| Check         | What it confirms                                                            |
| ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Traffic split | Traffic is going to more than one variation so the test can compare results |

***

#### Targeting

| Check                   | What it confirms                                                                 |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Cart targeting rules    | Cart targeting rules are valid and complete                                      |
| Targeting logic         | Targeting rules don't contradict each other or accidentally match too many pages |
| Page and audience match | Page rules and audience rules aren't working against each other                  |
| Theme test targeting    | The theme test isn't accidentally narrowing who sees the control theme           |

***

#### Offer conflicts

| Check             | What it confirms                                                     |
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Offer tiers       | Offer tiers are filled in and don't overlap                          |
| Discount stacking | This offer won't stack unexpectedly with Shopify automatic discounts |

***

#### Pricing

| Check                                | What it confirms                                                                                         |
| ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Price test setup                     | Pricing is enabled for this test                                                                         |
| Control vs. variant price difference | At least one variant has a different price than control                                                  |
| Price math                           | All calculated test prices are positive, sellable amounts with no two variants landing at the same price |
| Compare-at prices                    | Every compare-at price is higher than the selling price so the strikethrough displays correctly          |
| Subscription prices                  | Subscription discounts produce valid prices that are below the one-time price                            |
| Product price coverage               | All products have prices set for every test group — no gaps                                              |
| Prices across your store             | Prices match the expected amounts everywhere on your store — PDP, collections, search, and more          |

***

#### Installation

| Check             | What it confirms                                              |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Intelligems setup | Intelligems is installed once and pointing at the right store |

***

#### Appearance

| Check             | What it confirms                                                        |
| ----------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Test appearance   | Your test changes are visible and working in every test group           |
| Content changes   | Content changes look right and aren't breaking anything on nearby pages |
| Phone vs. desktop | The test looks the same on desktop and mobile                           |

***

#### Links, redirects, & hidden products

| Check           | What it confirms                                                        |
| --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Preview links   | Every preview link loads and lands on the right page                    |
| Redirects       | Redirects work without looping and each variant shows different content |
| Hidden products | Duplicate products created for this test aren't visible to shoppers     |

***

#### Checkout

| Check                    | What it confirms                                                                             |
| ------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Cart and checkout prices | Cart prices, line totals, and subtotals all show the correct test group amounts              |
| Offers and discounts     | Offers, progress bars, and free gifts are working without conflicting with Shopify discounts |
| Shipping                 | Shipping rates and messaging look correct and consistent                                     |
| Checkout appearance      | The checkout page loads correctly and shows the right prices                                 |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intelligems.io/general-features/atlas-qa/what-atlas-qa-checks.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
