Sitecore multivariate testing: how are values calculated?


I've created a multivariate test, but the values are stuck at zero. To make these values go up in accordance with my users' behavior when they convert, I have to do something I haven't done yet, and no documentation I can find describes just what this is.

I've tried configuring a goal with a rule of "item ID is equal to (some goal page's item ID)" and set the points value to eg. 1 or 5. But when I visit the page in a browser, the values on my test stay stuck stubbornly on zero.

Is there something I'm not doing?


Solution

  • This is most likely caused by the Test Statistics cache. It is set by default to 1 hour expiration time. To see your results instantly simply change the setting in the web.config to:

    <setting name="WebEdit.TestStatisticsCacheExpiration" value="00:00:00" />
