A method comparing two versions of a design to see which one performs better with users.
A/B testing, also known as split testing, involves presenting users with two variants (A and B) of a design element to determine which one achieves a higher performance based on predefined metrics.
Use A/B testing when you have multiple design options and need data-driven insights to choose the most effective one, especially for optimizing conversion rates or user engagement.
It provides empirical evidence on user preferences, reducing guesswork and enabling informed decisions to enhance user experience and achieve business goals.
Identify a variable to test (e.g., button color), create two versions, randomly assign users to each version, and measure performance against key metrics to determine the superior design.
Avoid testing multiple variables simultaneously, as it complicates identifying which change influenced results. Ensure a sufficient sample size for statistical significance.
