Test Card
Purposedifferent
When many tasks compete for the same capacity, it orders work by economic impact. It makes time lost, benefit, and effort comparable together.When demand only needs to be roughly verified, it tests interest with minimal effort. It measures whether people would take a next step at all.The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.
