Roundtable Podcast on Testing
As a huge fan, and active practitioner of, testing (A/B and multivariate), I decided it was time to record another podcast about the subject. I invited some of the people who I think have done a lot in this area and are working with continuous improvements online.
Some of the topics discussed in this podcast:
- Where should someone new to testing begin?
- Does method matter?
- Is suboptimization a risk?
- Can we trust the statistics behind tools?
- What test result has been the most surprising?

Previous podcasts about testing
I made four podcasts about testing back in 2007. Names of tools have changed, but the idea and principle behind testing is still relevant.
