0:03 The setup page

Experiment Engine starts with a setup page: three checks, then your first test. The bar shows how many required steps are done, and Check again refreshes them.

0:15 Turn on the app embed

Select Turn it on in theme editor, switch the embed on in your live theme, and save. The embed is what lets shoppers see each version of a test.

0:25 Check tracking

Under Check tracking, select Open your store once, so the tracking pixel can fire. The pixel is what counts visitors and orders.

0:35 Add product costs

Product costs are recommended, because profit per visitor needs them. Select Review costs to read them from Shopify or upload a file.

0:45 Your overview

The overview lists your running tests, and suggests tests to try next. When the checks pass, select Create test.
