Preview and Test Your Performance Questionnaire

Learn how to preview and test your performance questionnaire before launch. Validate the questionnaire, invitation email, and participant experience without recording any results.

Before launching a performance management initiative, take a few minutes to experience it exactly as your employees will. Amelio lets you preview your questionnaire and test the complete process before invitations are sent.

Whether you're building a Cycle or launching an individual initiative from the Dashboard, you can safely test everything without affecting your data. Responses submitted in test mode are never recorded.

Preview the questionnaire

As you are building your initiative, navigate to the Questionnaire step.

From there:

  1. Click Preview

  2. This will open a test URL

  3. Test the link yourself or share it with colleagues for feedback

The test link displays the questionnaire exactly as participants will see it, making it easy to review the wording, question flow, and overall experience before launch.

Test the complete participant experience

Want to make sure everything works from the moment an invitation arrives?

In the Launch section, enter an email address in the Test Invitation field. Amelio will send a test invitation that lets you experience the initiative from beginning to end.

This is the best way to verify:

  • the invitation email

  • the questionnaire layout

  • navigation between questions

  • instructions and wording

  • the completion experience

Because the invitation is sent in test mode, no responses are recorded, even after the questionnaire is completed.

Why test before launching?

A quick test gives you confidence that everything is ready before employees receive their invitations.

We recommend testing whenever you:

  • create a new questionnaire

  • update questions or instructions

  • modify invitation emails

  • want managers or stakeholders to review the initiative before launch

Spending just a few minutes testing your questionnaire helps ensure a smooth experience for participants and reduces the need for last-minute changes.
