The Visual Experience Composer (VEC) in Adobe Target makes it easy to create a Multivariate Test and to modify portions of the page within Target.
The Target point-and-click editor enables you to pick any location and add multiple offers.
The Multivariate Test (MVT) takes a page-first report. In other words, the test runs on a specific URL, with the experiences you design for that page.
Click Create Activity > Multivariate Test.
