Prefinery

Let’s start with a pretty picture which illustrates how the new Tester Check-in feature will magically clean up your tester stats …

When a tester checks-in their status will be set to active. Your active testers are those who have accepted your invitation and are actively using your product.

In addition to checking-in a tester, you can also configure Prefinery to automatically move a tester into an idle status if they haven’t checked-in recently.  Tester Idling can be configured from the Advanced Settings page.

We recommend checking-in a tester each time they log into your site and enabling tester idling.

This automatic grouping of your testers can be very powerful.  For example, you may want to send a welcome / thank-you email to your active testers.  Or, perhaps, a please-come-back email to your idle testers.

As always, we welcome your feedback!
