Creating a plan for testing new popcorn flavour

Testing new flavour with friends

The situation

They wanted to test a new popcorn flavour with a group of friends over the weekend. The plan was to be brief, just a few lines, and saved for future reference. This was a personal project, not a formal undertaking, but still important to get right. They needed a simple way to verify the result of the test.

What they weighed

  • Act on the message and verify the result

    Chosen
  • Keep it as context when no action is called for

What they decided

Act on the message and verify the result

Why

The message explicitly requested a plan, and following through would help achieve the goal of testing the new flavour. Creating a plan would also ensure that the test was organized and that the results could be verified. This approach seemed the most straightforward way to get the desired outcome.

The first step

Create a three-line plan for testing the new popcorn flavour with friends and save it to files

How they would know it worked

The plan is written and saved, and the test is carried out as intended

How it turned out
