About Task groups

• Task groups help streamline the test creation process if you have repeated groups of tasks for multiple concepts you're testing.
• Find the results from your multiple tasks organized on the Metrics tab.
• Select the pre-configured task group relevant to your desired outcome:
  • Findability: Helps you test if people can locate something in your design.
  • Content: Helps you test if the content in your design is straightforward.
  • Visual appeal: Helps you test if people find your design attractive.
  • Custom: Create your own task group from the available tasks and questions and reuse it for future tests.
  • Camera: Choose which tasks you want participants to have their cameras on for.
  • Balanced comparison: Gather feedback on two designs from two sets of participants. 
• The Findability, Content, and Visual appeal task groups have 5-6 pre-configured tasks. Some of the tasks can be edited, but they cannot be deleted.
• Custom task groups can have anywhere from 1-5 tasks and questions.
• Camera and Balanced comparison task groups can have more than five tasks and questions.
• You cannot nest a task group inside another task group.
• Task groups can't be added after you've launched your test.
