How to start a component test in Sitecore 8?
In sitecore7.5 there was a button Start Test on the ribbon, now under the Optimizaion menu in Experience Editor there are Lists section and Create a page test. But not Start test button.
Just to clarify what I'm trying to achieve. I've an Item that has a rendering in Presentation Details. On that rendering there is a MV test defined. I would like to start this test.
Sitecore 8 now has new A/B testing features.
In the Page Editor (Experience Editor) there is an Optimization tab. Here you can Click "Start a Test". Instead of just being able to test certain controls individually you can now test a complete variation of a page.
You then go to the Experience Optimization option on the Dashboard to see how well your variations are performing.
You can still test individual components in the Page Editor as before by clicking on the component and selecting the "Test a component" option in the ribbon above the component.
In Sitecore 8 you should run the component test using the workflow command "Approve with test". Take a look at this document
