A Fun Game: Guess the Outcome of 15 Tests

November 19th, 2009 by Lars Johansson

There is no better way to convince people in your organization about the value of analysis and testing than to let them compete against each other. For that purpose I have created a guessing game based on fifteen tests. Most were run as A/B tests, but some were multivariate tests where I only show the winning combination and the original design.

Will you get more correct answers than a monkey (randomized), a HiPPO (Highest Paid Person’s Opinion—in this case a CTO), a usability expert, an art director, a web analyst, and my mom (a retired elementary school teacher)? Find out!

It’s a fun game and the point is to prove that a guess is just that—a guess. Trust me, a monkey would probably beat me too sometimes! After all, this is why we test. Tests will give you a result based on lots of people and not based on a single person’s opinion.

So, what are you waiting for? Play the guessing game!

Note that you won’t see this test in your RSS reader or e-mail message. You need to open this post in a web browser to see it.
