How It Works

Centercode delta tests follow a proven process driven by experience and technology. Depending on your goals, we can operate in a fixed project-based model, or a continuous model aligned with your continuous delivery schedules.

Centercode's Project-Based Model of Delta Testing

Planning

We'll work with you to define your test objectives, activities, schedule, and tester demographic and technographic requirements.

Recruitment

We'll announce your test, select ideal testers, execute non-disclosure and participation agreements, and distribute the test product.

Test

We'll engage testers to drive feedback which we'll rapidly triage. Results are always available in real-time and presented in weekly meetings.

Wrap-Up

We will make final and share all results. If applicable, we'll promptly collect test units and distribute incentives to testers.

Centercode's Continuous Model of Delta Testing

Scoping

Centercode Delivers

We'll scope an effective test that engages your audience while adhering to your schedule. Our testing efforts stay focused on the exact features and experiences that are meaningful to your success.

Smooth Logistics

We'll handle the complete distribution of your test units and/or software directly to your testers. For hardware products, we can optionally handle the speedy retrieval of your test units.

Ideal Targeted Testers

Centercode will identify the perfect test candidates that meet your requirements. Depending on your goals this may be from our global tester network, your existing customers, or your own team.

Ongoing Tester Engagement

Engagement is the single most common challenge in user testing. We'll proactively manage the tester relationship to ensure that high-quality feedback continues to flow with each new phase.

Tier-1 Feedback Triage

Our team will rapidly review and scrub all feedback to ensure clarity, originality, and accuracy. Once submitted, we'll enrich it with insights from moderated discussions with other testers and then prioritize it.

Weekly Team Meetings

Your CPM will host a weekly meeting with you and your team to present and review phase feedback, share recommendations, and strategize upcoming phases.

Actionable, Prioritized Results

All feedback is triaged for clarity and accuracy, ranked by severity and frequency, and aligned with your goals.
