OK, that title got your attention! What I am talking about? Well, some people promoting Taguchi methods of testing suggest that you can eliminate under performing test runs during the test. Here is a quote from the guy that runs StomperNet’s test software:
Lets say you are running a L18 — this has 18 different landing page recipies. While the test is running you will naturally see a couple of recipies that are doing significantly worse than the others. As this happens you can shut off these recipies. You can keep doing this until you are down to two recipies — i.e. - a split test which will confirm the results from the teguchi test.
