This article provides a comprehensive checklist for performing shipping tests. It will guide you through the preparation steps, help you conduct tests efficiently, and ensure your shipping setup works as expected.

Pre-Test Checklist

Before starting your shipping tests, ensure the following requirements are met:

Due to Shopify constraints, Carrier service API is not available for Basic Shopify store.

If ABConvert Shipping rate is NOT added, simply click "Add rate" and add it to the zone.

ABConvert shipping banner is not available for advanced shipping tests.

To review your test configurations and test results, follow these steps:

  • Go to the Test Analytics Page and click “Summary.”

  • The Summary Block will pop up, showing your test configuration and providing links to preview the test.

There are three types of shipping tests available. Simply scroll to the relevant test section to view its QA checklist:

Free shipping threshold

Flat rate shipping

Advanced shipping

Q1: What will happen if the test rate’s title is the same as my original rate?

In Shopify, if multiple rates share the same title, it will return the lowest rate. Therefore, please avoid using the same title for the test rate.

For Advanced Shipping tests, make sure to create distinct conditional pricing rules to prevent conflicts.

Q2: When will deleted rates be added back to the shipping zone?

Once the test is paused or ended, the deleted rates will be restored to the shipping zone.

Q3: There are text elements displaying shipping rates in the store, such as a self-built shipping banner, policy text, or shipping progress bar. How can these be managed?

By following the pre-test checklist and QA steps, you can ensure that your shipping settings function correctly across different scenarios. Whether you’re testing Free Shipping Threshold, Flat Rate Shipping, or Advanced Shipping, this checklist will guide you through the process to verify rates, configurations, and ensure a smooth customer experience.

(Optional) shipping banner is enabled. (see )
