Previewing a Theme Test

You can preview any test directly in your browser with Shoplift's Preview Mode. Preview Mode can be used on draft, active, and ended tests.

Using Preview Mode

On a given test draft or report, hover over your variant preview and select View in Browser. This opens Preview Mode in a new tab.

When using preview mode, you can experience your test as a website visitor would.

Switching Between Variants

At the bottom of the preview window, you’ll see a toolbar that lets you switch between:

  • Original (A) – your current experience

  • Variant (B) – your test experience

You can navigate across your site while the preview is active to see how each page looks when assigned to the A or B variant.

Exiting Preview Mode

To return to your live site, simply select Exit in the toolbar.
