| Criterion |  Product Discovery Learning Card |  Architecture ATAM (Architecture Tradeoff Analysis Method) |  Product Discovery MVP Test Matrix |
|---|---|---|---|
Purposedifferent | The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible. | ATAM helps teams weigh architecture decisions when quality goals compete. The team considers business goals, stakeholder expectations, and technical decisions together. The evaluation shows which risks need further investigation. | 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. |
