Status: Implement multivariate testing API and analysis/dashboard improvements. (June 20 - August 8)
Description
The Usability Testing Suite that I created during SoC 2008 needs additional work in order to make it ready for use. The existing module provides a powerful API that makes writing data collection plug-ins simple, but the user interface needs refinement and a screen recording plug-in would make the module much more helpful. Through this project I intend to finalize the Usability Testing Suite and make it ready for widespread use.

Setup a multivariate test with Google's Web Optimizer. Getting some experience and understanding how the tool works so I will have an idea of what the feature may look like for UTS.

I have had a number of conversations with Bojhan in IRC and skype. We re-arranged the Project schedule to provide more time for the Implement multivariate testing API and analysis/dashboard improvements. I cleaned up some old issues in queue, opened some more detailed feature requests for implementation, and completed a few. Also created an all-in-one download that contains all dependencies of UTS in one tarball and listed on the UTS project page.

Completed about 13 issues and cleaned up a few bits of code. I then did a bit of research into JavaScript recording tools and posted by results. I am awaiting a response from Bojhan.

Spent the week waiting for a response. Talking with Bojhan near the end of the week and he said I should go ahead and move on to next item. He has been contacting several people that work with jQuery a lot in hope that they may be able to complete the script.

Did some research and thinking into how to write the API for multivariate testing and posted my write up. Initial work on implementation to start soon.

Been a while since last update. I've been on vacation and busy, but still managed to make a lot of progress. Created the multivariate project and got an functioning API, test, and example. Will be working to fill in variation test a bit more and provide a hook for the success condition. I hope to clean up project page and make a release after a review form Bojhan.
2009年07月18日
Cleaned up the project page, added the hook, examples, and full test case. After checking it over I made a 1.0 release. Talked with Bojhan and discovered that instead of just recording the success of a single element, apparently what he is looking for is what element they stopped on...so more the success of each individual element. So looks like I may have to redesign it, we will be discussing it.
