Testing
Overview
Testing is a crucial part of building effective personalization with Usertune. The dashboard provides powerful testing capabilities that allow you to validate your Content containers and Variants before deploying them to production.
Why Test Your Content?
Testing ensures that: - Variants are selected correctly based on your conditions - Payload processing works with different context data - Personalization variables are replaced properly - Fallback scenarios work when expected data is missing - Complex conditions evaluate as intended
Testing Features
Dashboard Testing
Test your content directly in the Usertune dashboard with simulated user data to see how your variants respond to different contexts.
API Testing
Programmatically test your content using API calls with custom context data to validate behavior in your application environment.
Comprehensive Validation
Test all aspects of your personalization logic including condition matching, payload processing, variable interpolation, and edge cases.
What You Can Test
Context Simulation
Simulate different user scenarios by configuring:
- Geographic Data (geo.xxx) - Test location-based targeting
- Time Data (time.xxx) - Test time-sensitive content
- Custom Attributes (attribute.xxx) - Test user segmentation
Content Validation
Verify that your content works correctly: - Condition Logic - Ensure variants are selected properly - Variable Processing - Check that dynamic content renders correctly - Fallback Behavior - Test scenarios when data is missing - Edge Cases - Validate unusual or boundary conditions
Testing Workflow
- Configure Test Context - Set up fake data to simulate user scenarios
- Execute Tests - Run tests to see which variants are selected
- Validate Results - Verify that the output matches expectations
- Iterate and Improve - Adjust conditions and payloads based on test results
