Testing
Main Concepts Technical / engineering testing: Checking whether the system or VR build works correctly, meets requirements, and behaves consistently. Research / participant testing: Testing with participants to verify that the experiment supports the hypothesis and produces valid data. Debugging: Systematically identifying, isolating, and fixing the cause of a technical problem. Learning Goals Distinguish between the two types of testing. Apply a simple technical testing protocol to a project. Systematically identify, document, and fix software or VR errors. Use the Testing Worksheet to maintain traceability and collaboration. Recognize testing as essential quality assurance for both research and development. Key Takeaways Technical testing validates the build before research testing validates the hypothesis. Debugging is guided observation — not random trial and error. Documenting your tests ensures accountability and repeatability. Continuous testing builds confidence and prevents surprises during research trials. A clear testing workflow saves time and makes collaboration smoother.
