    Default A/B Testing with Google Checkout

    We've been directed to http://manual.aspdotnetstorefront.com/p-749-ab-testing-with-google-checkout.aspx to learn about setting up Google's A/B testing tool with ASPDNSF. Thanks for the great information but there is one part that still confuses me: what decides which version of a page to serve? Do I need to write some code to randomly pick a skin?

    Thanks,

    Richard

    For the page variation URLs you set up with google, just specify different skins with the ?skinid=# querystring as shown in step 6 in that doc. Once you start the experiment, Google will randomly send customers to different variation URLs and collect the data for you, there's no coding on your end other than inserting the javascript they give you in the right places.

    Thumbs up

    Ah, I understand now. Thanks.

    If I wanted to try the fancy multivariate testing I take it that would be possible too? Perhaps something in the query string to change certain parts of the page but I can't see ASPDNSF causing any problems.
