Once your Allocation setup is completed, you will want to log into your Test Group as if you were one of your customers to make sure the path to purchase is free from any errors. If you haven’t already done so, assign yourself to the Test Group and sign in as a customer on the website so you can view the allocation. Here are some suggested areas to review:

1. Check the website copy, products, and allocation messaging free from any typos or formatting errors.

2. Verify that the product Format, Price, Purchase, and Wish are correct.
