Criterion	Architecture ARID (Active Reviews for Intermediate Designs)	Product Discovery MVP Test Matrix	UX Research First-click Testing	Product Discovery Learning Card
Purposedifferent	ARID examines how well developers can work with a technical design. It focuses on a part of the system that can still be revised, between the architecture overview and the detailed specification.	When several minimal variants compete to answer the same question, it makes comparing and choosing between them cleaner. It separates problem, assumption, solution, and evidence. The result is captured as a Test Matrix and a Test Plan.	When users immediately turn the wrong way on a screen or wireframe, first click testing checks initial orientation at high speed. The first click shows early whether expectation, labeling, and wayfinding fit together.	The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible.
