Back to collectionThe Minting Flow Works End to End, but First-Time Users Still Matter
Iron Pigeons was in preparation for release, and the studio first needed to know whether its minting flow worked from start to finish. The first round of internal testing took the entire minting flow through a successful confirmation. Until now, the flow had been prepared in pieces.

Iron Pigeons was in preparation for release, and the studio first needed to know whether its minting flow worked from start to finish. A-Zhen, an early engineer, watched the steps closely while other team members tried them from a participant's point of view.
The first round of internal testing took the entire minting flow through a successful confirmation. A-Zhen gave the team the steps to check and asked the testers to note where they needed extra explanation. Team members knew what to click; someone arriving for the first time might not.
Until now, the flow had been prepared in pieces. The team now had a complete run to use when checking the instructions and prompts a participant would encounter. The success belonged to an internal test; whether public use would be as smooth remained open. A-Zhen planned to address the testers' points of confusion first.
