Preparing Test Variables in Advance for the Visiopt System

Overview

This Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) outlines the steps for preparing test variables in advance when setting up a test in the Visiopt system. Proper preparation of your variables ensures a smoother test setup process and reduces the potential for errors.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Simple Variables

1. Document Simple Variables

·   Gather all simple variables (e.g., headlines, paragraphs) that you plan to test.

·   Place these variables in a Word document, Pages document, or text document. The format does not matter as long as the information can be easily copied and pasted during the test setup.

2. Example Preparations

·   If changing a headline, write the new headline in the document.

·   If altering a paragraph, document the revised paragraph text.

Step 2: Prepare Images

1. Gather and Edit Images

·   Collect all images that will be used in the test.

·   Ensure any necessary edits are completed.

2. Document Image Details

·   Prepare a document with all images ready to be inserted into your test setup.

Step 3: Prepare Videos

1. Prepare Video Versions

·   If testing videos, prepare all versions of the videos in advance.

·   Have the embed code for each video ready for easy insertion.

Step 4: Prepare Complex Variables

1. Document HTML Sections and Div Elements

·   For more complex variables, such as HTML sections and div elements, prepare and save these in the editor of your choice.

2. Save in Preferred Editor 

·   Ensure all complex variables are saved in a format that can be easily transferred to the Visiopt editor.

Step 5: Prepare Advanced Styling

1. Document CSS Styling

·   If advanced variables include styling, prepare this CSS in advance.

·   Use the "Add CSS" button in the Visiopt editor to add these stylings.

2. Add CSS Styling

·   Upon clicking the "Add CSS" button, a pop-up will appear.

·   Paste the required CSS styling into this pop-up.

Step 6: Ensure Efficiency

1. Run Tests Efficiently

·   Preparing all variables in advance allows for a more efficient test setup.

·   Avoid the need to repeatedly edit and save variables, which can lead to errors.

Conclusion

By following these steps, users can efficiently prepare all test variables in advance, ensuring a smooth and error-free setup process in the Visiopt system. Proper preparation minimizes disruptions and enhances the accuracy and reliability of your tests.
