Define Interactions And Start The Test

June 8, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Some people have suggested that testing of interactions cannot be done using the Taguchi Method. That is simply incorrect and demonstrates a lack of understanding. Taguchi developed his arrays specifically to allow for interaction testing. Our software uses the full power of the Taguchi Method.

On the start test page, you can define the factor interactions you would like the software to test. If you do not specify these, the software will still evaluate interactions based on the array it picks.

Notice I said, “It picks.” You do not have to know anything about the mathematics of the Taguchi Method in order to use the software. The software does the picking of the array and all the factor assignments to the array in the background. It will do this based on the interactions you specify.

Did you notice how easy it was to start the test? Just click the Start Test button and it starts. There was no cutting and pasting of code.
