Background

• We would like to brainstorm various ways to test the UI of adding recommendations to the empty state of search with readers across a set of languages

User story

• As a product team, we want to know whether adding recommendations into search will benefit users so that we know whether to invest our time into this idea

Requirements

• Brainstorm at least three ways of testing the UI for adding recommendations and receiving user feedback
  • User feedback must be receivable by readers
  • Experiment must take roughly 1 week to set up and roughly 1 week to run (1 sprint total)
  • Nice to have - a group large enough to test on as to render the results statistically significant
  • Nice to have - the ability to compare the results to similar results from features such as related pages
  • Nice to have - the ability to measure external referrals for the pages of the test
